Advanced Metallic Seal for High Temperature ApplicationsThe U-Plex(Registered TradeMark) was designed to allow greater elastic deflection capability in a given gland volume than the now conventional E-seal(Regitered TradeMark). Greater deflection capability with the associated lower bending stresses provides several benefits. For pneumatic duct joints, the axial free height is increased to allow sealing of flanges with weld distortions significantly in excess of what could be tolerated with E-seals(Registered TradeMark), This performance is achieved while maintaining the reusability and ease of assembly typical of E-seal(Registered TradeMark) rigid duct joints.
