When hydrogen is used as a fuel in vehicles with an internal combustion engine, seals must be able to operate in a wide temperature range -40 °C-+85 °C/-40 °F-+185 °F under high pressures, up to 40 bar/580 psi and prevent leakage to ensure passenger safety.
Products
- Multicomponent parts
- Static seals
- Rubber-to-metal bonded gaskets
Fuel cell applications are especially challenging for seals, since they operate at a wide temperature range -253 °C-+85 °C/-423 °F-+185 °F and there is a significant risk of electrochemical attack, which can damage sealing materials and hardware.
Products
- Rubber-to-metal bonded gaskets
- HMF FlatSealTM flat gaskets and frame gaskets
- O-Rings

Natural gas turbines can be transitioned to blended hydrogen-natural gas turbines to generate electricity. These innovations are designed to phase out natural gas altogether. Components within turbines must be able to withstand high temperatures and be compatible with various gas mixtures and resist rapid gas decompression
