Flange seals or PIP (Press-in-Place) seals are static seals. Their rectangular cross-sections ensure seal from dust-proofing to fluid between two housings under high pressure.
Thanks to a tailored design, these seals can be used to seal in environments subject to large gaps or tolerances.
The addition of spikes ensures that the seal is held in place after assembly and, if necessary, during transport.
Flange seals are used in a wide range of applications in the thermal and electrical automotive sector: engines, gearboxes, air intake and thermal management systems, electronic units and oil filtration systems. However, these seals can also be used in many static applications where the seals are in facial contact with the housings.
Thanks to our expertise in materials, we have developed compounds that are resistant to aggressive fluids, and fire. They can be adapted to different conditions of use.
Our experts will help you to define the design best suited to the environment in which it will be used, using finite element calculations, and then validate it through functional tests.
