Product Description
UNCD®
Type A05 seals are long-lasting, wear-resistant diamond multi-spring
pusher component seals that feature the patented UNCD form of
diamond. O-rings are used as secondary sealing elements. Components
use a snap-ring design and are able to be shaft mounted.
A05 component seals are offered to enable
end-users, OEM, and seal manufacturers a quick and easy method
of procuring UNCD seals for pilot plant and evaluation purposes
in common ANSI pump sizes. In addition to these A05 seals, UNCD
Faces are offered to OEM and seal manufacturers in standard ANSI
mating ring geometries and can be manufactured to your custom
engineering drawings. Please contact us for further information
regarding UNCD Faces for your products.
Applications and Features
These evaluation seals are designed for industrial
applications including chemical, pharmaceutical, petrochemical,
food and beverage processing, power generation, pipeline and pulp
and paper. A05 seals are particularly suitable for poor lubricating
environments including hot-water and applications that include
temperature sensitive organics. Though the standard A05 configuration
pairs a blister resistant carbon primary with a UNCD mating ring,
A05 seals are also available in a "hard-on-hard" configuration
with a silicon carbide (SiC) primary and UNCD mating ring. The
coefficient of friction (CoF) of this hard-on-hard combination
is between 0.02-0.04, well below the CoF values of carbon faces
running against SiC. Additional technical details and performance
testing results can be found here.
