API 6A Valve Seat Seals Peek Seal Ring

Description

Peek (Polyether ether ketone) is a high-performance thermoplastic material that is known for its excellent mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties. Peek is often used in industrial applications where high temperature, chemical resistance, and mechanical strength are required.

A peek seat is a component that is often used in valve applications. It is a seat made from peek material that is used to provide a tight seal between two components.

A peek o-ring, on the other hand, is a type of o-ring made from peek material. O-rings are mechanical seals that are used to prevent the leakage of gases or liquids. Peek o-rings are known for their excellent chemical resistance, high-temperature resistance, and low friction coefficient. They are often used in applications where standard elastomeric o-rings would not be suitable due to their inferior properties.

Sealing principle:

The peek seat is a V-spring that is used as a force-applying element. The seal housing made of PTFE composite or peek has a good leak and crush resistance. As a seat seal ring, it is widely used in high-pressure valves, usually, the inner and outer seal rings of the seat are used together.
 

Features

PEEK o-rings are often used for high-pressure valve seats and other critical sealing applications in industries such as oil and gas, aerospace, automotive, and chemical processing, among others. Due to their excellent compression resistance and dimensional stability, PEEK o-rings can withstand high pressures and maintain their sealing performance even in harsh environments. In addition, the high groove size requirements of some applications can be met by machining PEEK o-rings to the desired dimensions, ensuring a precise fit and reliable sealing.
