The PS-SEAL® PTFE Rotating Shaft Seal delivers best-in-class sealing performance for high-speed, high-pressure, vacuum, and extreme temperature applications where others fail. Available with Garlock’s proprietary GYLON® PTFE lip, it offers exceptional wear resistance, low friction, chemical compatibility, and full compliance with FDA, USP VI, EN 1935/2004, and ATEX standards, making it ideal for food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries. With the ability to handle pressures up to 50 times that of standard lip seals and temperatures up to 500ºF (260°C), the PS-SEAL® thrives in both dry running and abrasive environments. Available in multiple lip configurations and fully customized designs, it’s the ultimate solution for demanding rotary shaft sealing needs.


PS-SEAL® is offered in a range of high-performance lip materials and configurations, allowing each seal to be optimized for abrasion resistance, dry-running capability, heat dissipation, or chemical compatibility. This flexibility extends service life, reduces downtime, and ensures reliable performance across demanding food, beverage, and pharmaceutical processes. With short lead times, no minimum order requirements, and engineering support for unique applications, PS-SEAL® provides a versatile and dependable solution for critical rotary shaft sealing challenges.

  • Overview

Features and Benefits:

  • Withstands high pressures, vacuum, and high shaft speeds for reliable sealing in demanding applications.
