Non-Reinforced Inflatable Seals

WESTERN Inflatable door seal is a reinforced elastomeric tube or without reinforced (depend on
pressure) custom molded in a round concave, convoluted or flat configuration . it is designed to round out with the introduction of an inflation medium to form a tight barrier between a mounting and striking surface.

Reinforced Inflatable Seals

Western airseal ™Fully moulded fabric reinforced Inflatable Seal Reduces Risk Of Failure By
Improving The Strength Of Rubber And Size And Ensuring The Entire Seal Performs Consistently Satisfactorily and smoothly. This Translates To Reliable Inflation Across The Entire Strike Surface. Fabric Reinforced Rubber Seals Are Effective Where Moderate- To High-pressure Is Applied (we make seal up to 25bar bursting pressure ), Such As In Heavy Industrial, Environmental, Technical And Laboratory Environments, marine, nuclear, RegionA Variety Of Reinforcing Fabrics Are Available And Determined By Factors Such As Temperature And Pressure. Western Polyrub Offers Technical Guidance To Determine The Appropriate Design, Manufacturing, And Material Composition. The Fabric Inflatable Must Withstand Environmental Factors And Perform Using Air Or Gas Controlled Mechanisms Under Pressure.

Expansion

Card image

Axial

Axially expanding Inflatable Seals have the centerline diameter as the fixed dimension. The Inflatable Seal expands in the perpendicular direction with respect to the diameter. These seals are sometimes also referred to as face seals.

Card image

Radial-Outward

Seals expanding radially outward have the Air Inlet Valves(AIV) typically installed into a channel with the inside diameter (ID) as the fixed dimension.

Card image

Radial-Inward

Inflatable seals with small outside diameters may end up wrinkling with this kind of expansion. Seals expanding radially inward have Air Inlet Valves(AIV) typically installed into a channel with the outside diameter (OD).

Geometry

Circular

Inflatable Seals with circular geometry are the most commonly used seals owing to their wide application. Circular Inflatable Seals are the mostly preferred in manhole covers, hopper seals or in industrial machinery like fluidized bed dryers, autoclaves; where in the machines are made in circular dimensions.

Rectangle

Rectangular Inflatable Seals are very commonly found in door applications like doors for clean rooms, nuclear facility, satellite testing facility, etc. Please note, Western Rubbers’ does not fabricate rectangular seals with tight radiused corners. This is to ensure the seal expansion is not compromised at any point.

U Shaped

U shaped Inflatable Seals are a common configuration in inflatable gate seals. Ends of u-shaped seals are vulcanized and hence cannot inflate. The uninflated portion of the seal depends upon the seal profile and application. Appropriate retention mechanisms for this configuration is available at Western Rubbers.

Strip

Inflatable seals with straight configurations are most commonly found in clamps and actuators. Straight seals have vulcanized ends that do not expand. The amount of uninflated area in straight seals depends on profile and application. We provide retention mechanisms that work well for straight seals.

Your Questions Our Answers

 

A fabric-reinforced inflatable seal is an elastomeric tube molded into a concave, convoluted or flat configuration. It is designed to round out with the introduction of an inflation medium to form a tight barrier between a mounting and striking surface.
An inflatable seal operates by introducing an inflation medium. Upon introduction of the inflation medium, it quickly expands to the striking surface, affecting a positive seal. When the inflation medium is removed, the seal retracts naturally to the deflated molded configuration. This provides clearance for free movement of one or both surfaces.
An inflatable seal has several advantages over other sealing methods:
• It provides a leak-proof closure, yet allows clearance when needed.
• It simplifies the design of the structure and hardware.
• It minimizes the need for close machining and/or fabricating tolerances.
• It is not subject to a compression set which negates effectiveness of other seals.
Yes! Essentially all Western Polyrub Inflatable seals are custom rubber seal designs. After over 30-years in business, more than 8000 unique products have been developed. Take a look at all of the unique designs at inflatable seals product category.
It’s important to consider the application’s environment: gas temperature, radiation and abrasion exposure when maintaining your inflatable seal. Learn more about these application environmental considerations.
Generally for nominal pressure applications we suggest customers to avoid fabric reinforced seals so as to avoid high costs. But if your differential pressure requirements are higher than 7-8 Bar then we suggest customers go for fabric.
