Cat Pump 48362 Back Up Ring
Cat Pump 48362 Back Up Ring
Product Description :
- It is a mechanical seal component used in conjunction with O-rings or other types of seals to prevent extrusion or damage under high-pressure conditions.
- The primary function of a backup ring is to prevent the elastomeric seal (such as an O-ring) from being forced into the gap or clearance between mating surfaces when subjected to high pressures. This helps maintain the integrity of the seal and prevents leakage.
- By supporting the elastomeric seal, backup rings improve the resistance to pressure differentials and prevent damage that could occur due to abrasion or excessive deformation.
- They are typically made from materials that are rigid and resistant to deformation under pressure, such as polyamide (nylon), PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), or various engineered plastics.
