The Seal Users Handbook by R M Austin and B S Nau
Although many companies admit that a high percentage of plant breakdowns can be traced to seal failure, and that the consequential financial losses can be extremely high, seals are not always considered as carefully as they should be. One reason for this has been the lack of an easy, practical reference book which would help designers and engineers to select the right seal for each application, and to fit and use it correctly.
This comprehensive guide published by
BHRA Fluid Engineering fulfils the need, and provides the answers to the seal users’ problems.
If you want to check that you are using the best seal for your particular application, whether a seal is correctly fitted or not, or what the most suitable servicing procedures are, THE SEAL USERS HANDBOOK contains the information you need. You can find out which factors affect seal behaviour and efficiency, or turn to the section on seal materials.
THE SEAL USERS HANDBOOK also contains a directory of all UK and OVERSEAS seal manufacturers, suppliers and agents marketing in Britain, listing full addresses, telephone numbers and telex codes, plus product design details, seal trade names, and a glossary of the terminology and abbreviations used in trade literature.
Other valuable features discuss standards and metric sizes, and recommended control tests for maintaining consistency and quality of elastomeric materials. There is also a bibliography, plus a section entitled ‘HELP’ which describes consultation and research services available to the user.
Drawing offices and designers, maintenance and service departments, as well as engineers responsible for seal selection and buying, will all find this useful book an invaluable guide to seals and sealing techniques.
