Sealing Functions
  • Both rotating & non-rotating seals
  • Seal drilling mud away from bearing lubricants
  • Provide required pressure balance
  • Critical to mud motor performance
Sealing Functions

RM Seal
RM Seals

  • Fluid retention lips on the inside diameter which prevent the seal from spinning in the groove and reduce frictional heat
  • Provide stable positioning for positive sealing at the outside diameter lip contact surface
  • Activation slots which allow drilling mud to energize the sealing lip during pressure fluctuation

Type B PolyPaks
Type B PolyPaks

  • Increased stability: helps prevent the seal from spinning in the groove
  • Allows grease in relief groove to migrate to the shaft and full pressure across the seal
  • Allows storage of grease and reduces high squeeze contact forces
