摘要： A seal is provided having a back surface that is generally perpendicular with a longitudinal axis of the seal and a sealing portion on the side opposite the back surface. The sealing portion is defined by first and second intersecting surfaces. A plurality of projections are disposed on one of the first and second surfaces at a location generally adjacent the intersection of the surfaces and a cylindrical recess is defined in at least a portion of the plurality of projections. The sides of the cylindrical recesses and the plurality of projections are oriented perpendicular to the back surface to enhance the ability to manufacture the seal in an economical manner.

摘要： A radial lip seal for sealing about a pin of a hinge joint is disclosed. Such seal includes an outer mounting ring, a rubber flex ring mounted inside the mounting ring, a tension ring mounted inside the flex ring, and an inner elastomeric seal ring mounted inside the tension ring. The seal ring has an inside diameter that is a sufficient amount smaller than the pin to cause the tension ring to be stretched by a predetermined amount when the seal is mounted about the pin. The tension ring is capable of exerting a radial force of at least 20 N/cm of circumference on the seal ring upon being stretched the predetermined amount. The unique construction of such a seal is effective in sealing out highly abrasive materials found in very severe operating applications, such as on earthmoving vehicles, and provides a seal having an extremely long service life in such applications.

摘要： The present invention relates to a method for producing a mold having a micro-textured surface, wherein the mold can be used to form an elastomeric seal having a micro-textured surface. The resulting seal will hold an amount of lubricant that is released with time, the release of the lubricant will result in decreased friction between the seal and a surface contacted by the seal.

摘要： Elastomeric seals, including O-rings, may have chemically resistant thin films applied by the technique of plasma polymerization to the surface of the elastomer, enhancing wear resistance and environmental resistance without changing the physical properties of the elastomer. The films may be a silane polymer applied by plasma deposition in a radio frequency/microwave dual power source reactor.
