Demonstrating Innovative Thinking
The Trelleborg Sealing Solutions website has always been a key place to check on the latest industry trends and developments in the world of sealing. Now, a new section is
being regularly updated with leading-edge products, materials and services to keep customers informed on solutions that can improve efficiency and performance. The pages feature a quick overview of the key benefits and links to resources, such as brochures, catalogs and flyers, to get all the information you need easily. Some of the the latest additions include:
Advanced Isolast® Capabilities
Complex, custom components can be manufactured using a range of innovative processes from our portfolio of Isolast® FFKM materials – making solutions that work more efficiently for longer.
iCast™ LSR
The unique iCast™ digital manufacturing process is an innovation in Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) processing. Involving no tool investment, it offers a cost-effective way to develop product variations or try out different design concepts before investing in serial production tools, as well as enabling the start of pre-series and series production with small batches.
XploR™ S-Seal and XploR™ FS-Seal
Commonly known as spring seals, the XploR™ S-Seal and XploR™ FS-Seal are custom-engineered, spring-energized elastomer seals. They combine the benefits of integral support components with the flexibility of an elastomer seal. These seals are ideal for use in chemical processing, chemical transportation and oil and gas applications, such as oilfield casings and tubing.
Orkot® C620
Orkot® C620 pushes the boundaries of composite technology. It is specifically designed and developed to meet the needs of the aerospace market, in particular for a strong and light material to withstand high loads and stresses over a long service life, making it ideal for landing gear.

Each episode covers social and technological trends affecting the polymer industry. Topics discussed revolve around digitalization, electrification and sustainability to give insider information on today's and tomorrow's engineering and sealing technology.

New Sealing Solutions for Off-Highway Equipment Film
Protecting off-highway vehicles from the dirt that they encounter in operation every day is challenging for seals. Trucks, tractors and diggers not only have to deal with dirt 24/7, but high pressures and fluctuating temperatures. Trelleborg Sealing Solutions has been involved in seal design, specification and development for the off-highway industry for decades and has a wealth of solutions on-hand to keep trucks trucking and diggers digging!
In the new film, get to work with construction, mining and forestry equipment and see where seals improve performance. Products for these types of applications use Zurcon® Scraper DA24, Zurcon® Glyd Ring® D, and Mechanical Face Seals to make sure these machines keep running as planned.
O-Ring Calculator Updated With New Features
The popular Trelleborg Sealing Solutions digital O-Ring Calculator has been updated with new features to make it quicker and easier to specify seals for your application. Enter installation specifications and receive O-Ring sizes, housing layout and part numbers instantly!

LATEST INNOVATIONS!
The new innovations section of the website highlights the latest innovative products, solutions and services, to bring you the highest levels of performance and reliability in your applications.
Isolast® PureFab™ FFKM
A new range of four materials specially engineered for critical semiconductor applications offers the ultimate, high purity sealing performance. They aim to increase product yield and reduce process defects, while reducing downtime, extending maintenance cycles, to give greater process tool uptime and lowering total cost of ownership. In the web section, find a quick summary of all the materials, with detailed webinars and data sheets!
Turcon® VL Seal II
The revolutionary Turcon® VL Seal® II extends the lifetime of hydraulic aircraft systems. The new seal improves reliability and efficiency for actuators, flight controls and landing gear shock absorbers, and is easier to install, which saves time during maintenance. Extensive testing has proven the seal's outstanding ‘zero’ leakage performance. In addition, by negating the need for drain lines, the seal contributes to manufacturers' goals for weight saving to increase fuel efficiency.

Watch the Sealing Solutions for Fluid Power Components Film
Hydraulic systems are fundamental to the operation of everything from earthmoving equipment to machine tools. The principles are the same, regardless of the application, and the seals are essential to ensure reliable, long-life performance.
This new film gives an overview of the latest sealing technologies for rods and pistons for a selection of applications:
- Pumps and motors
- Accumulators
- Rotary manifolds
- Vehicle drivetrains
- Engines
The seals are shown in operation through 3D visualizations to better demonstrate how each seal contributes to the overall performance of the sealing system.
