  2. Stuffing box - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuffing_box

    The "box" is a cylindrical assembly, typically of bronze, comprising a sleeve threaded on one end to accept adjusting and locking nuts. A special purpose heavy-duty rubber hose attaches the stuffing box to a stern tube, also called a shaft log, that projects inward from the hull.

  3. 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 .

  4. Gasket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasket

    A gasket is a mechanical seal which fills the space between two or more mating surfaces, generally to prevent leakage from or into the joined objects while under compression. It is a deformable material that is used to create a static seal and maintain that seal under various operating conditions in a mechanical assembly. [1]

  5. Ferrofluidic seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrofluidic_seal

    Ferrofluid-based seals used in industrial and scientific applications are most often packaged in mechanical seal assemblies called rotary feed-throughs, which also contain a central shaft, ball bearings, and outer housing. The ball bearings provide two functions: maintaining the shaft's centering within the seal gap and supporting external loads.

  6. O-ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O-ring

    Typical O-ring and application. An O-ring, also known as a packing or a toric joint, is a mechanical gasket in the shape of a torus; it is a loop of elastomer with a round cross-section, designed to be seated in a groove and compressed during assembly between two or more parts, forming a seal at the interface.

  7. Labyrinth seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labyrinth_seal

    Indeed, many gas turbine engine seals leak by design. [4] 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 ...

  8. Hydrostatic seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_seal

    The second hydrostatic seal was an attempt to resolve first generation hydrostatic seal problems: erosion of seals, high pressure build up, and stagnant fluids. Second generation hydrostatic seals had a redesigned seal face; new face control grooves were added to help stabilize the seals while under extreme conditions.

  9. Diaphragm seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_seal

    In mechanical engineering, a diaphragm seal is a flexible substance that seals and isolates an enclosure. The flexible nature of this seal allows pressure effects to cross the barrier but not the material being contained. Common uses for diaphragm seals are to protect pressure sensors from the fluid whose pressure is being measured.
