OptiSeal®
Superior sealing capabilities for critical service
Our customers rely on superior sealing capabilities for their critical service sealing needs. From downhole pumps to subsurface safety valves, the OptiSeal® system is designed to provide high-performance, low-friction sealing for a broad range of applications in the energy industry.
The use of pressure-energized seal engineering design maximizes the performance of the OptiSeal® in extreme temperature, pressure, and media, making it an ideal choice for severe-service sealing.
CONFIGURATIONS AND DESIGN
The basic design of the OptiSeal® consists of a U-shaped jacket made from an inert thermoplastic which can be energized by silicone filling, a compressed V-shaped metal spring, or an O-shaped elastomer, allowing for adequate sealing across the entire pressure range.
The OptiSeal® system can be configured to customizable heights, diameter ranges, and materials as per your specifications. Leveraging our broad portfolio of materials and design expertise, we offer a robust sealing assembly fit for a multitude of media, addressing the most extreme conditions such as:
- High-pressure ranges
- Broad temperature requirements
- Static and dynamic applications
- Rough surface finishes
OptiSeal® Configurations:
- Standard
- OptiFace Seal
- Flanged
- Opti-Oilseal
BACK-UPS
A back-up auxiliary device is made from stronger material than used for the seal. Once placed within the OptiSeal® system, the back-up device prevents seal extrusion, allowing the seal to be used at higher pressures and temperatures while maximizing the seal life.
PACKING DESIGNS
OptiPak® packing assemblies are specifically designed for conditions requiring redundant sealing surfaces. By utilizing the design benefits of OptiSeal® systems, a more robust product is developed for application in the extreme conditions found in:
- High-pressure ranges
- Large extrusion gaps
- Dynamic conditions
- Potential misalignment
- Rough surface finishes
