New Generation Oz Packings Still The Most Forgiving Under Harsh Conditions


New Generation Oz Packings Still The Most Forgiving Under Harsh Conditions

As of late, many packings have been replaced by mechanical seals. But not all packings can be completely replaced by mechanical seals, as packings are still the most reliable seal arrangement for use under rough environments, for instance in slurry pumps. The Oz Seals complete standard range of new generation packings provides improved sealing performance with long service life and environmental protection against dirt, slurry, dust, chemicals and high temperatures. These requirements, along with improved working conditions and increased operational safety are of fundamental importance to the sealing of valves, centrifugal pumps and high pressure plunger pumps. Across a wide variety of industrial applications, these packings have proven extremely durable and economical, providing trouble-free sealing even under the most demanding of conditions.

All Oz Seals new generation packings have been carefully selected to be asbestos-free, environmentally friendly and cover a large pH range of 0 – 14, ideal for acids and alkaline environments. They have the ability to withstand high temperatures from minimum 200ËšC up to 650ËšC.
