TCW

Description

The TCW profile is a shaft seal composed of a single metal cage with rubber grooves on the outside of the cage, a primary sealing lip with integrated spring and an additional anti-pollution lip.

* Very good static sealing
* Very good thermal expansion compensation
* Greater roughness is allowed in the housing
* Reduced risk of corrosion
* Easy to assemble with very
* limited bounce-back effect
* Sealing for low and high viscosity fluids
* Modern primary sealing lip with low radial forces
* Protection against undesirable air contaminants

MATERIALS

ACM

Polymers containing ethyl acrylate (or butyl acrylate) have a small amount of monomer, which is necessary for cross-linking; ACM is a material with better heat resistance than NBR. It is often used for automatic gearboxes.

Chemical resistance Mineral oils (motor oils, gear box oils, ATF oils)
Atmospheric and ozone agents
Compatibility issue Glycol-based brake fluids (Dot 3 & 4)
Aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons
Water and steam
Acids, alkalis and amines
Temperature range -25°C to + 150°C (short-term peak at +160°C)
-35°C / +150°C with particular ACMs

EPDM

As an Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer copolymer, EPDM is commonly used for hot water taps, cooling systems, brake systems, dishwashers and washing machines.

Chemical resistance Hot water and steam up to +150°C
Glycol-based brake fluids (Dot 3 & 4) and silicone-based brake fluids (Dot 5)
Organic and inorganic acids
Cleaning agents, sodium and potassium alkalis
Hydraulic fluids (HFD-R)
Silicone oils and greases
Compatibility issue Mineral oils and greases
Hydrocarbons
Low impermeability to gas
Temperature range -45°C / +150°C (short-term peak at +175°C)

FKM

Depending on their structure and fluorine content, the chemical resistance and resistance to the cold in fluororubbers can vary. This FKM-based rubber is very often used for high-temperature hydraulics and pneumatics, for industrial valves, injection/fuel systems, motor seals and high-vacuum systems.

Chemical resistance Mineral oils and greases, ASTM n°1, IRM 902 and IRM 903 oils.
Fire-resistant liquids (HFD)
Silicone oils and greases
Mineral and vegetable oils and greases
Aliphatic hydrocarbons (propane, butane, petroleum)
Aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene)
Chlorinated hydrocarbons (trichlorethylene)
Fuel (including high alcohol content)
Atmospheric and ozone agents
Compatibility issue Glycol-based brake fluids.
Ammonia gas.
Organic acids with a low molecular weight (formic and acetic acids)
Temperature range -20°C / +200°C (short-term peak at +230°C)
-40°C / +200°C with particular FKMs

HNBR

This HNBR-based rubber is obtained through selective hydrogenation of the NBR’s butadiene groups. It is commonly used for power-assisted steering and for air conditioning.

Chemical resistance Aliphatic hydrocarbons
Mineral and vegetable oils and greases
Fire-resistant fluids (HFA, HFB and HFC)
Diluted acids, saline solutions and bases for operation at an average temperature
Water and steam up to +150°C
Atmospheric and ozone agents
Compatibility issue Chlorinated hydrocarbons
Polar solvents (ketones, esters and ethers)
Strong acids
Temperature range -30°C / +150°C (short-term peak at +160°C)
-40°C / +150°C with particular HNBRs

NBR

Nitrile rubber (NBR) is the general term for acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer. The ACN content can vary between 18% and 50%. While the acrylonitrile content is important, the resistance to oil and fuel is more so. Conversely, the elasticity and compression set are not as good. The NBR has good mechanical properties and good wear resistance. However, its resistance to atmospheric agents and the ozone is relatively low.

Chemical resistance Aliphatic hydrocarbons (propane, butane, petroleum, diesel fuel)
Mineral oils and greases
Fire-resistant fluids (HFA, HFB and HFC)
Diluted acids, low-temperature alkaline and saline solutions
Water (up to +100°C max)
Compatibility issue Fuels with high aromatic content
Aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene)
Chlorinated hydrocarbons (trichlorethylene)
Polar solvents (ketone, acetone, acetic acid, ethylene-ester)
Strong acids
Glycol-based brake fluids
Atmospheric and ozone agents
Temperature range -30°C / +100°C (short-term peak at +120°C)
-40°C / +100°C with particular NBRs
