Mechanical Face Seals Market: Overview
Mechanical Face Seals are specific kinds of mechanical seals. They are several terms for mechanical face seals, which include floating seals, toric seals, duo cone seals, lifetime seals, and heavy-duty seals. The two major mechanical face seals are Type DO and Type DF. Type DO is the most commonly used mechanical face seal type, in which an O-Ring is utilized as a secondary sealing element. However, a diamond-shaped cross-section elastomer is used as a secondary element in Type DF. These seals are used for connecting different systems or mechanisms for preventing the leakage of gases or fluids, which excludes contamination, and contains pressure.
