T: -240℃~+260℃ PH : 0-14 Hydraulic oil medium environment Achieve oil and gas sealing
Problems Encountered:
Traditional aircraft fuel tank port cover sealing used rubber gasket, vulcanised rubber for sealing, but the rubber ring and vulcanised rubber have the defects of non-aging resistance, cumbersome construction, high density, poor reusability, etc., which will increase additional man-hours and material costs in the production, operation, maintenance and other aspects.
Solution:
Replace the rubber gaskets and vulcanised adhesive with LightSeal® WF series sealing materials in each fuel tank port cover of the aircraft.
Customer Benefits:
LightSeal® WF Series seals are low density, easy to install, and non-aging, resulting in weight reduction, increased sealing reliability, and overall cost savings.
