Industrial Sealing Technology

By H. Hugo Buchter

Shows how to identify and solve all kinds of sealing problems, bringing together data previously scattered throughout the literature. Discusses basic principles of how seals work, what different kinds of seals can accomplish, and what range of environmental and mechanical specifications each seal type is suited for. Covers all major categories of seals, explaining what seals are available, how they function, who can fabricate them, and how they behave in the field. Also examines packings-both mathematically and empirically-and reciprocating shafts.
