Designed around the moving gap

An inflatable seal is useful when a rigid gasket cannot follow a changing or uneven clearance. The seal stays retracted while the door, hatch or product moves, then expands only when a seal is required.

IKSONIC develops the cross-section, corner layout and inflation connection from the equipment interface. The design review begins with the groove drawing and the minimum and maximum working gap, not with a generic catalogue size.

Information needed for a quotation

A complete application description reduces sampling cycles and helps identify the correct construction.

  • Groove and mating-surface dimensions
  • Minimum and maximum sealing gap
  • Inflation direction and available air connection
  • Temperature, medium and cleaning chemicals
  • Required ring or frame dimensions and annual quantity

Prototype before production

Profile pressure, expansion and service life depend on the complete cross-section and its support. Samples should be evaluated in the actual groove with the intended pressure-control system before production approval.
