  2. Labyrinth seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labyrinth_seal

    Labyrinth seals are also found on pistons, which use them to store oil and seal against high pressure during compression and power strokes, as well as on non-rotating shafts. In these applications, it is the long and difficult path and the formation of controlled fluid vortices plus some limited contact-sealing action that creates the seal.

  6. Dry gas seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_gas_seal

    Tandem seal with intermediate labyrinth; Double opposed seal - Used when the processed gas is abrasive (like hydrogen) and lower pressure designs. All designs use buffering with "dry" gas, supplied through control and purification systems. All Dry Gas Seals need additional protection from the process and the bearing lubrication sides of the seal

  7. End-face mechanical seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-face_mechanical_seal

    In mechanical engineering, an end-face mechanical seal (often shortened to mechanical seal) is a type of seal used in rotating equipment, such as pumps, mixers, blowers, and compressors. When a pump operates, the liquid could leak out of the pump between the rotating shaft and the stationary pump casing. Since the shaft rotates, preventing this ...

  8. Seal (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seal_(mechanical)

    A seal is a device or material that helps join systems, mechanisms or other materials together by preventing leakage (e.g. in a pumping system), containing pressure, or excluding contamination. The effectiveness of a seal is dependent on adhesion in the case of sealants and compression in the case of gaskets .

  9. Stuffing box - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuffing_box

    The stuffing box prevents water from entering the boat's hull. In many small fiberglass boats, for example, the stuffing box is mounted inboard near the point the shaft exits the hull. The "box" is a cylindrical assembly, typically of bronze, comprising a sleeve threaded on one end to accept adjusting and locking nuts.
