Whenever components have been provided with bores for subsequent installation of additional assemblies, these bores require reliable permanent or temporary sealing. Design engineers are frequently faced with a problem: The bore is to be closed with a cover but the surrounding space is too small for a classic flange seal. If a lead-in chamfer of 15 to 20° is lacking, the radial sealing will fail because it would not survive installation undamaged even with a chamfered or rounded edge – part of the seal would inevitably be sheared off.
Roll2Seal features a geometry that requires no lead-in chamfer, no deburring, is self-retaining, and delivers both temporary and permanent protection against dirt and wetness.
