When it comes to sealing hazardous chemicals like ammonia, reliability isn’t optional, it’s essential. At Stein Seal Industrial, we engineer and manufacture high-performance ammonia seals that help our customers protect their people, their equipment, and their communities in even the most challenging industrial contexts. Special Considerations for Ammonia Seals Ammonia is widely used in industrial […]
In 1955, America was riding a massive wave of prosperity that began with the end of World War II. The Post-War era was a period of unprecedented growth in manufacturing, industry, research, culture, and entertainment, and by the middle of the decade, the boom was well into a sustained crescendo. In this single year, America […]
The conventional standard for seals used in gas turbines has traditionally been a labyrinth or brush seals. However, like most mechanical seals, both of these configurations suffer from performance degradation over time due to wear. In the early 1990s, Stein Seal began work on an alternative seal mechanism using a thin layer of gas or […]
When high-performance aeronautical technologies are adapted for land-based applications, the result is often an impressive boost in operational efficiency. Low-pressure turbine seals are an excellent example. These seals, which are engineered to perform in the highly demanding context of flight, really deliver in the stationary turbines used in earthbound power generation. Stein Seal Industrial (Stein) […]
Industrial machinery runs on gears and will continue to rely on these machines for the foreseeable future due to their high-efficiency energy-transferring capabilities. Gear assemblies, which include two or more interlocking gears and shafts, power the motors, actuate the fixturing, facilitate material handling, and control timing, among other vital tasks. Highly complex gear assemblies, such […]
The United States commissioned its very first military submarine on April 11th, 1900. In 1969, the U.S. Congress voted to recognize the significance of that day by declaring April 11th as annual National Submarine Day. As we approach the date this year, submarines have become a high priority in the military, where an intense effort […]
