Blue Diamond designs and
manufactures high performance
seals.

With energy efficiency becoming
increasingly important, even a
modest improvement in seal design
can help reduce losses and extend
operational life.
Blue Diamond offers a range of
low friction options including its
SBBT surface treatment and a
technology whereby a PTFE disc is
bonded to the lip of a seal.

Seals with these treatments
combine the low friction benefits of
PTFE together with the memory and
flexibility provided by the seals’ base
polymer. In addition, it is claimed
that these seals resist the movement
and forces caused by eccentric shaft
rotation and are also said to offer
improved performance in the event
of shaft to housing misalignment,
poor surface finish, vibration, high
pressures and inadequate lubrication.
