Product Advantages
The GZT Shaft-Mounted T-Type Glyd Ring, proudly developed by Forever Seals, stands out with its exceptional performance, driven by innovative materials and design. Its outer ring, made from Bronze PTFE (BRONZE PTFE), combines the low friction coefficient and chemical resistance of PTFE with the structural rigidity and thermal conductivity of bronze particles, significantly enhancing wear resistance and load-bearing capacity—ideal for high-pressure and heavy-duty shaft operations. The integrated elastomeric O-ring ensures consistent elastic compensation, maintaining reliable sealing even with minor surface irregularities, while the T-shaped structure minimizes friction-induced heat buildup, extending service life in continuous-cycle applications.
Compared to standard sealing solutions, the GZT series offers superior adaptability to extreme temperatures (-45℃ to +200℃) and diverse media (oils, hydraulic fluids, gases), making it a versatile choice for demanding industrial environments.
Product Principle
The sealing performance of the GZT Shaft-Mounted T-Type Glyd Ring relies on the synergistic effect of its two key components. The Bronze PTFE outer ring, with its high hardness and low friction speciality ,forms a tight contact with the shaft surface. When the system is under pressure, the pressure of the medium acts on the outer ring, causing it to deform slightly towards the sealing interface, thereby enhancing the sealing effect. At the same time, the elastomeric O-ring inside exerts a continuous elastic force on the outer ring, ensuring that the outer ring maintains sufficient contact pressure with the sealing surface even under low-pressure or no-pressure conditions, preventing initial leakage. This combined structure enables the GZT to achieve reliable sealing in both static and dynamic working states of the shaft.
Product Details
