  • Sealing Gland Assembly Instructions (.pdf)
    Conax Technologies sealing glands have lubricant applied at the factory. Substitution of factory-supplied lubricant will affect seal integrity. Lubrication prevents thread galling and minimizes friction between mating metallic components to maximize sealing gland performance when
  • An ACS Crash Course on Seal Types for Rotary Valves
    One seal, two seals, packing gland, shaft seal. The choices are seemingly endless for the types of seals that work with your rotary valves and airlocks. And, just so you don't have to go through the same dilemma of which seal to choose every time they need replacing (which they will), here's your
  • Everything You Need to Know About Cord Grips
    Cord grips (which are also known as cable glands, connectors, strain relief, or fittings) are devices that attach and secure heavy-duty cables to equipment. They can seal around single or multiple wires or cables - armored or unarmored.
  • O-Ring Failure Modes: Extrusion Damage
    Extrusion damage failures often occur in dynamic applications such as hydraulic controlled rod and piston seals. These can also occur in static applications when seals are subjected to high-pressure pulsing, especially when the gland extrusion gaps are excessive.
  • New DPM Double Planetary Mixer - An Economical Alternative to Double-Arm Kneaders (.pdf)
    , such as highly filled adhesives, heavy silicone and butyl sealants, and bulk molding compounds. But a double-arm mixer commands about three times the price of a double planetary mixer, requires more space on the plant floor, and introduces many potential problems with shaft seals, stuffing boxes
  • Definition and Applications of Compression Packing
    the rotating member, and the body of the pump or valve. By tightening a gland follower against the top ring, pressure is transmitted to the packing set, expanding the rings radially against the side of the stuffing box and rotating member, effecting a seal.
