Discover & Insights

Focus on Sealing Technology. Key topics include technologies, materials, and applications, as well as design, testing methods, and service life.

Versatility

Sealing Technology in Hydraulics

Reliable sealing systems are crucial for the safe and efficient operation of hydraulic systems. We develop and supply high-quality sealing solutions that are optimally tailored to pressure, temperature, speed, and operating conditions. For maximum operational reliability, long service life, and reduced maintenance costs.

New

STEM PTFE back-up rings with Memory Effect

Our STEM endless back-up rings, made of high-quality virgin PTFE, reliably prevent gap extrusion in demanding sealing systems. Thanks to their special memory effect, the rings automatically return to their original shape after installation—eliminating the need for recalibration and significantly simplifying the installation process.

Perfection

Quality assurance at the highest level

Quality begins with the selection of materials and is a constant throughout every step of our manufacturing process. With processes certified to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 and state-of-the-art measurement technology such as the Keyence IM-X1000, we ensure precise inspections, documented results, and end-to-end transparent process from prototypes to mass production.
