The Basics of Inflatable Seals

May 6, 2020

With over 40 years of industry experience, we know just how useful inflatable seals can be. But many people do not! These fabric-reinforced, fully molded and engineered rubber products can fulfill a wide variety of purposes across a vast spectrum of industries. Here is what helps make Seal Master customized inflatable seals so efficient.

Directional Inflation

A key part of our inflatable seals’ versatility is their directional inflation. Seal Master seals can inflate and deflate in three basic directions. This allows them to fulfill countless needs, such as filling a void, lifting an object, or providing an airtight seal.

Custom Shapes and Sizes

Inflatable seals are available in a wide range of standard shapes and configurations. In fact, we’ve designed over 7,500 distinct products to-date! This extensive experience means our team is also well-equipped to engineer and customize designs and elastomers for your specific project needs, based on your application’s mechanical requirements.

Multiple Ways to Build Pressure

Our inflatable seals are much more than simple rubber extrusions. Instead, they are custom-built to withstand a wide range of environments. As part of this design philosophy, they can use gas, air, or liquid to pressurize. This design is reinforced with fabric and fully molded to ensure that they will maintain the required pressure for your application.

From heavy lifting applications to holding materials in place for light machining, our customized inflatable seals can fulfill a wide range of needs. Reach out today to learn more about how Seal Master products can help you optimize your products and processes!
