Types of seals engineering

Our Switch Seal is a one-piece boot constructed of a flexible rubber boot element that is bonded to a threaded metal insert during molding. This insert fully encapsulates the switch and bushing to the panel, ensuring a robust construction. This assembly replaces the panel mounting nut and seals the mounting hole, creating a robust watertight seal. It also eliminates any need for gaskets or packings, streamlining the assembly or installation process.

Our company is known for our catalog of standard seal offerings, covering most general equipment requirements. However, we can also develop custom seal solutions to meet your uncommon specifications or unique performance needs.

Panova Toggle Switch Seal Boots are one-piece seals constructed of a flexible rubber boot element, bonded to a threaded metal insert, that fully encapsulates the switch and bushing to the panel. This assembly replaces the panel mounting nut and seals the mounting hole, making it watertight.

Panova’s Push-Button Seal Boots are one-piece elastomeric boots that seal a switch and internal components, protecting them against hazardous foreign elements. Our assembly replaces the panel mounting nut and seals the mounting hole. The result is a fully watertight seal that prevents the ingress of dust, dirt, and debris.

We also offer Self-Sealing Washers and Lock Washers engineered to ensure reliable sealing when installed with standard screws and bolts. The screw head automatically seals upon installation, preventing leakage and the ingress of contaminants. Metal-to-metal contact prevents damage during installation, while carefully-engineered elastomer properties help maintain ideal screw tension once compressed. The symmetrical design also facilitates a simpler, more streamlined installation process ideal for automated assembly operations.
