Q&A: Is there a seal material that will operate at 600° continuously?

Written by Dave Biering | February 7, 2012

This question was posed to us from an aerospace client. Temperature is always a big issue in aerospace, particularly in military aircraft and vehicles. And continuously maintaining 600°F can be a challenge, given that the materials that resist such high temperatures are usually more rigid.

TriStar has a range of high-pressure, high temperature seals available. More details, including the key considerations to help you improve performance in seal material, are available in our video. Or let us review your design specs, and we’ll help you match the right polymer to the right hardware.
