Literature Update

Rapid growth in the medical device industry and changing patient expectations are leading to significant innovation in hosing and tubing, as manufacturers seek new processes and components to enhance their products. This whitepaper introduces the key factors to be considered in the specification of these extrusions, outlines the material options (focusing on silicone extrusion technologies), and highlights applications with real-life examples from our customers.

Changing times call for new innovative solutions. With increasing demands on seals in many industries, multicomponent technology provides the perfect solution when a single component no longer fits the bill.

Trelleborg Sealing Solutions has invested in multicomponent technology that strongly bonds a range of polymers chosen to meet your specific requirements. Unique seal geometries, combining multiple features or seals, can be customized and shaped to your application. This can improve performance, make assembly easier and reduce the number of parts that you need to handle. The seals produced are leak-free and need less space and assembly effort, making them a cost-effective sealing solution.

Turcon® Variseal® is a spring-energized, single-acting seal for dynamic and static working conditions. Its special seal profile and choice of proprietary Turcon® or Zurcon® materials offer low-friction performance at high speeds, pressures and temperatures for many different applications. The seals are often chosen when high chemical resistance is required, extreme temperatures will be encountered or where good extrusion and compression characteristics are required.

The new Turcon® Variseal® catalog helps when deciding on the correct Variseal® design for an application, giving detailed information on the operation and performance, material
choices and size ranges available. The latest edition of the catalog has updated material and certification information, reworked ordering examples for Turcon® Variseal® M2, and
minor changes and corrections to size ranges.

Injection molding machines require robust and long-lasting seals to ensure smooth and uninterrupted production. Trelleborg Sealing Solutions highlights some of its latest products to meet these requirements, incorporating high specification materials and Lubrication Management technology to increase service life of the entire system.

Read the brochure to learn how Trelleborg can assist with solving engineering challenges at any stage of development. See where our solutions can impact performance within each area of an injection molding machine, and discover some of the science behind how they work.

Operating in harsh and dirty environments all day long, tractors are the most used machine for farming and agriculture worldwide. Whether a low horsepower work vehicle or a giant machine harvesting acres of grain, the seals used are critical to effective, long-life performance.

Trelleborg Sealing Solutions has applied its Lubrication Management and other technical innovations to further optimize whole system performance. Inside the brochure, find out how Turcon® Roto L extends the lifetime of Central Tire Inflation Systems by sealing only when required, and discover the many different application areas that Trelleborg contributes its expertise to within a single tractor!

The Isolast® brand has represented the highest degree of material performance and formulation since the 1960s, giving unparalleled strength and resistance to one of the broadest ranges of chemicals available.

Isolast® PureFab™ is a dedicated line of FFKM materials, specifically formulated to meet the purity requirements and unique demands of the semiconductor market.

These leading-edge materials ensure process yield is maximized and maintenance cycles are extended through ultra-low outgassing in high vacuum conditions and reduced particle generation. 

• Isolast® PureFab™ JPF10 - High-purity, fully organic material for high temperature applications
• Isolast® PureFab™ JPF20 – A new level of plasma resistance for the most aggressive uses
• Isolast® PureFab™ JPF21 – High temperature performance in oxygen and fluorine plasma
• Isolast® PureFab™ JPF30 – A translucent, extreme purity FFKM with excellent particle performance

As aircraft incorporate more advanced sensors, electronics and wireless technologies, it is vital that aircraft engineers and designers address electromagnetic interference (EMI).

This interference can originate from extreme weather events, such as lightning strikes or solar flares, or the aircraft's own electrical systems.

Most polymers and composites are not conductive, but through specialized formulation, materials can allow currents to pass through. Read about Turcon® MC1 and Turcon® MC2, two new compounds developed for this purpose, and see where and how they can make flying a safer and more comfortable experience - without compromising on performance.

eMobility is booming globally, with component manufacturers serching for effective solutions to meet their emerging challenges.

From the drivetrain to the battery and electronics, Trelleborg Sealing Solutions has developed solutions in tandem with the automotive industry to stay ahead of emerging issues and desires.

This brochure takes a deep-dive into the products and services on offer, detailing the benefits that can be gained by working with Trelleborg. Exploded-view diagrams will show you where products, such as HiSpin® rotary seals, improve powertrain performance and how integrated custom molded battery seals fit within the battery.
