Cryogenic Seals
The stainless FEP encapsulated seal was first
used in the U.S. rocket development program
associated with space exploration. The
stainless seal components are ideal in
services such as flowing liquid oxygen and
hydrogen, with extremely low cryogenic
temperatures (-420°F -260°C).
Today, the cryogenic field has grown from
very specialized applications to a broad
spectrum of commercial uses in the
transportation, food preparation,
pharmaceutical, medical and chemical
processing industries. When considering
elastomeric seals, brittleness becomes a
limiting factor that is a direct result of severe
temperature drop.
