The desire to move to sustainable energy sources and reduce carbon emissions is growing exponentially. Low-cost renewable energy sources (e.g., solar, wind, hydro) are being developed and deployed worldwide.
There have been advancements in the research and development of clean energy sources. Hydrogen has been identified as a potential green energy source.
As the world shifts its focus to decarbonization initiatives, research shows responsible leaders will pour more technology and infrastructure into the hydrogen production economy to provide clean, carbon-free energy storage.
Qualiseal wins over customers with custom design, verification, and field testing. In-house lab testing shortens the validation process by a factor of years. A rigorous design and review process provides customers with peace of mind. The team maintains the relationship with superior customer service.
The HELICOFLEX® seal is a high performance, flexible metal seal that has exceptional compression and elastic recovery properties. This seal is composed of a close wound helical spring surrounded by one or more metal jackets. The spring is designed to have a specific compression resistance. During compression, the resulting specific pressure forces the jacket to yield and fill the flange imperfections while ensuring positive contact with the flange sealing faces. Each coil of the helical spring acts independently and allows the seal to conform to surface irregularities on the flange surface.
HELICOFLEX® design flexibility allows Technetics engineers to customize the seal characteristics to match each unique application.
Increase the overall sealing performance of your installations with TEXEAL®, the new patented texturing process, applied to HELICOFLEX®, which is already the resilient metal seal standard for high-performance sealing. HELICOFLEX® TEXEAL® can help reduce operating costs during maintenance. It is a material innovation developed from decades of established sealing expertise.
