- Sizes to suit all O-Ring grooves including AS-568 and ISO-3601 seal sizes
Turcon® Wedgpak® consists of a proprietary triangular elastomer element supported by two delta shaped Back-up Rings.The delta-shaped Back-up Rings of Turcon® Wedgpak® prevent the elastomer element from spiraling or rolling under severe working conditions.
The optimized elastomer contact area of Turcon® Wedgpak® design results in a slipper seal-like performance with low static and dynamic friction. At the same time, the elastomer wipes the surface efficiently.
An outstanding load profile is the result of seal squeeze combined with the angles of the elastomer and Backup Ring in the Unidirectional Wedgpak®. This gives effective fluid-film control and gas sealing in low and high-pressure systems.
