Learn about the basics of metal seals and their importance in this training presented by, Technetics Group Design Engineers, Michael Shealy, and Steven Henning, as well as Senior Project Engineer, Jason Adams.
The HELICOFLEX® TEXEAL® texturized seal is a low-load metal seal which allows for the optimization of assemblies at the design phase. It offers uncomplicated installation while achieving a superior sealing level and maintaining performance over time with possibilities of reuse.
A product of the technical collaboration of Technetics Group and the French Atomic Energy Commission (CEA), this innovation allows us to address issues that other metallic solutions couldn’t solve.
Key Takeaways
Presented by Technetics Group, Mechanical Engineers, Frédéric Sauvinet (HELICOFLEX® Seals Product Manager) and Philippe Favre (Nuclear Market Manager)
Technetics Group was the first to create the texturized seal concept with the goal of addressing issues with a metallic solution. Texturization has made many advances in the last few years and is now worldly applied thanks to Technetics’ innovation.
The process is simple, fast and reliable. Once the HELICOFLEX® TEXEAL® was designed, there was a series of tests conducted including varying pressures, nuclear conditions, temperatures and more. The HELICOFLEX® TEXEAL® concept allows for the highest seal performance due to its unique design, metallic properties, and rigorous testing.
