Parker's application engineers are available to assist you in the design process. They will review your applications, study all factors involved such as temperatures, pressures, gland design, bolt torque, surface finish, etc., and suggest several alternative designs. They will assist you in researching and testing those selected recommendations until the best possible seal is achieved, based on performance and efficient manufacturing costs.
