STAINLESS STEEL GARTHER SPRINGS
Stainless steel springs for oil seals are essential components to ensure the correct radial pressure of the sealing lip on the shaft, maintaining consistent sealing performance even under demanding operating conditions. These springs, also known as garter springs, are supplied according to the inner diameter of the seal, so they fit perfectly into each configuration and deliver optimal performance.
Manufactured from high‑quality stainless steels such as AISI 304 and AISI 316, they provide excellent corrosion resistance, withstanding exposure to moisture, lubricants, chemicals, and aggressive atmospheres. AISI 304 offers an optimal balance between durability and cost, while AISI 316, with its higher molybdenum content, ensures superior resistance in highly corrosive environments or in applications with frequent contact with salt water or aggressive chemicals.
These springs maintain the necessary compression force for the sealing lip to remain in uniform contact with the shaft, minimizing leakage, compensating for minor wear and thermal expansion, and extending the service life of the sealing system. Thanks to their precise construction and availability in different diameters, they are the ideal solution for maintenance, manufacturing, and customization of rotary shaft seals in all types of industrial applications.
For selecting the correct spring according to the inner diameter of the seal and the required material, please refer to our technical datasheets or contact our specialized team for guidance on the best solution for your specific application. CONTACT.
