What have been some typical successful applications of Select-a- Seal REC technology?
Select-a-Seal REC technology has experienced considerable success in applications on heavy-duty diesel engines and power transmission designs for power takeoffs and accessory drive covers. Other successful applications, which underscore Select-a-Seal REC gaskets’ abilities to handle a variety of fluids, include water pumps and automotive applications as diverse as axle covers, fuel pumps and oil pans. More important than specific industries served, however, is the fact that Select-a-Seal RECs exhibit durability – the measure of how long a product seals without leaking under certain test conditions – in combination with outstanding robustness – the measure of a seal’s ability to perform acceptably in less than ideal circumstances, e.g., when a flange bolt is missing. In fact, tests indicate that Select-a-Seal REC technology should be considered in applications with lessthan- ideal bolt positions, including wide bolt spans, as well as conditions of low loading, rough or unmachined flange
