Polyfluor Plastics is specialized in Fluoropolymer products. One of products are seals, with specialization shaft seals with PTFE sealing Lip.

The seals and guides we provide are made from a wear-resistant PTFE compound which is the best choice when it comes to high sliding speeds and high thermal stress (also in low-lube and oil-free applications). Because of the outstanding tribological properties, these compounds offer excellent chemical resistance to aggressive media.

A small selection of the seals we offer:
1) Rotary Shaft Seals: these seals are used in sealing applications involving following media e.g. Mineral based and synthetic lubricants, Chemical water. Typical Applications for Rotary Shaft Seals e.g. are Rotary compressor, Mils/Crushers and Grinders.

2) Spring – Energized Seals (single acting sealing elements): primarily used for sealing reciprocating pistons and rods. These seals consist of two components; an outer sealing element made out of a High Strength Plastic and an integrated spring (e.g. Hastelloy).

3) Memory Packings: a one–piece seal used primarily for rotary and swiveling applications, made out of high strength Fluoroplastics. These seals have an extreme low coefficient of friction, constant over a wide temperature range.

We offer tailor-made seals as well, completely according your request. Together with our R&D engineers you can verify which compound will be suitable for your specific application.
