Gas (dry gas) Seal

Gas-lubricated mechanical seals are high-performance mechanical seals engineered specifically to prevent gas leakage between rotating and stationary components in critical equipment such as compressors, turbines, and high-speed pumps. Unlike conventional liquid-lubricated seals, gas seals operate on a non-contacting principle using a thin film of gas—typically air, nitrogen, or process gas—as the sealing medium.

This gas film creates a stable and controlled gap between the seal faces, minimizing friction, virtually eliminating wear, and significantly reducing energy consumption. Their design is ideally suited for high-speed, high-pressure, and hazardous gas environments where leakage control, equipment reliability, and efficiency are paramount. Gas seals also contribute to extended equipment life, lower operating costs, and reduced emissions, making them a preferred choice in modern rotating machinery across the oil & gas, petrochemical, and power generation industries.
