Dynamic Seal Gland Design

Types of Dynamic Seals

Dynamic Seals: Reciprocal, Rotary Characterized by relative motion between the sealing surfaces. Reciprocal motion is most common in hydraulic cylinders or actuators, as well as in some types of valves. Rotary motion is common in many pump and valve applications.
Dynamic rotary seal applications: throttle valve
Dynamic Cycling Seals: Open-Close A hybrid dynamic static application where the relative motion occurs when the sealing surfaces are separated and then rejoined. Cycling (open-close) seal applications: slit valve, other valves
