Custom inflatable silicone gaskets for autoclaves, dynamic laboratory gaskets, metal or silicone valves.
This type of pneumatic seals allows applications where an airtight seal is required offering protection to the entrance of dust, granules, gases, liquids and dirt.
Inflatable silicone gaskets are made of high strength non-toxic non-toxic silicone. Seals are provided deflated. When it inflates, the air pressure causes the seal to expand and contact the surface to be sealed. When the pressure is released, the gasket returns to its resting position. This behavior allows them to be extremely useful for sealing applications whose characteristics do not allow it to be effectively solved with traditional mechanical sealing elements.
Applications
Our inflatable joints can solve applications where a fast and simple sealing cycle is required, where the tolerance between the two surfaces to be sealed is too wide and applications that require a tight or fluid seal. Thanks to the tightness they provide, they are especially indicated when there is a hygienic procedure to comply with (European atoxicity regulations, FDA, etc.) as well as specific formulations for the railway sector, complying with the European standard EN45545. These equipment include, for example, watertight tanks that need to be opened / closed frequently, autoclaves for sterilization or industrial use, watertight doors for clean rooms and any type of industrial application for clamping, clamping, lifting or pressure.
Inflated and Production
Our pneumatic seals can be inflated with a high quality metal valve available in two lengths.
