Cemented Carbide Sealing Rings: KOIHO BETTER CARBIDE`s Precision Solutions
What Are Cemented Carbide Sealing Rings?
Tungsten carbide sealing rings are precision components made from cemented carbide—a combination of tungsten carbide (WC) and a cobalt or nickel binder through powder metallurgy. With a Mohs hardness of 8.5-9, these hard alloy seals resist wear and corrosion, making them ideal for high-pressure, abrasive environments. KOIHO's precision carbide sealing rings provide tight seals in mechanical systems, outperforming steel or ceramic alternatives in longevity and performance.
Uses of Cemented Carbide Sealing Rings
- Oil and Gas Pumps: Cemented carbide seal components prevent leaks in electrical submersible pumps (ESPs) handling abrasive crude oil, compatible with Schlumberger systems.
- Chemical Processing: Tungsten carbide sealing rings resist corrosive chemicals in agitators and compressors, ensuring reliability in harsh environments.
- Water Management: Hard alloy seals maintain seals in centrifugal pumps for municipal water systems, resisting wear from debris.
- Petrochemical Systems: KOIHO’s precision carbide sealing rings support leak-proof performance in high-pressure flow control systems.
These seals complement KOIHO’s carbide bushings, API valve balls and seats, and wear-resistant carbide parts for comprehensive fluid system solutions.
Benefits of Cemented Carbide Sealing Rings
- Wear Resistance: Cemented carbide sealing rings withstand abrasion 5x better than steel, extending seal life in sand-laden oil wells.
- Corrosion Resistance: Nickel-bound tungsten carbide seals resist acids and saltwater, making them ideal for offshore applications.
- Thermal Stability: With a melting point of 2,870°C, hard alloy seal components maintain integrity in high-temperature compressors.
- Cost Savings: KOIHO's precision carbide seals reduce maintenance by 25%, offering long-term value for ESPs and chemical plants.
