Kalsi Seals Handbook:

Kalsi Seals Handbook Rev. 2
This handbook includes rotary seal implementation and troubleshooting guidelines, with a special emphasis on oilfield sealing applications.  It is based on the collective wisdom of our senior staff members, who have many decades of experience in solving various seal implementation challenges.  It is a valuable design manual for existing customers, and for individuals who are interested in using our rotary seals.


Rotary Seal Literature:

Cement Pump Seal Cartridge
 (1241 KB PDF)
A pump seal cartridge that provides improved reliability and longer life in oilfield well cementing service. The rotary seals hydroplane on a film of oil to reduce seal-generated heat. A special purpose seal serves as a pump that flushes a pair of lip seals.

Axially Constrained Kalsi Seals
(27.1 KB PDF)
The axially constrained seal provides improved abrasion resistance in applications having little or no differential pressure. Available for radial gland depths of 0.250” and 0.309”. Widely used as an oilfield mud motor balancing piston seal.
 

Wide Footprint Kalsi Seals
(152 KB PDF)
The wide footprint seal is a new generation Kalsi Seal for retaining pressurized lubricants. Key enhancements include improved environmental exclusion, increased lip width and increased compression.

Kalsi Rotary Seal Brochure

(609 KB PDF)

This four page brochure provides a brief overview of Kalsi Engineering and Kalsi rotary shaft seals, which are used in drilling mud motors, oilfield rotary steerable tools, high pressure coring swivels, and other abrasive service equipment.

High Temperature Kalsi Seals
(56 KB PDF)
A composite FKM/TFEP rotary seal construction for high temperature service in applications with low and medium pressure differential, such as the rotary steerable tools used in oil well drilling.

Enhanced Lubrication Seals
(221 KB PDF)
A seal that facilitates the use of thinner lubricants and higher pressures and speeds, at the expense of greater hydrodynamic leakage. Applicable to surface equipment such as rotating drilling heads/ bop’s and high pressure hydraulic swivels.

Data Sheet for Extra-Wide Enhanced Lubrication Seals                               (93 KB PDF)                                       The extra wide version of the Enhanced Lubrication Seal operates with low torque even in high differential pressure conditions, and tolerates thin viscosity lubricants. It has 2.4 times more sacrificial material, compared to a Standard Kalsi Seal.

 

Hydraulic Swivel Seals

(254 KB PDF)

This brochure outlines recommended practices for using Kalsi-brand swivel seals in multi-circuit high pressure hydraulic swivels.


 

Low Breakout Friction Seals

(39 KB PDF)

An optional surface treatment reduces the breakout torque of HNBR seals. This treatment was developed for applications that are sensitive to breakout torque, such as underwater vehicles, oilfield rotary steerable tools, and rotary control devices.


 

Filled Kalsi Seals
(191 KB PDF)
A soft integral energizer significantly reduces seal-to-shaft contact pressure, breakout torque, and running torque.
