Inflatable seal applications

Versatility of inflatable seals

Inflatable seal applications

Inflatable seals are used in a wide variety of industrial applications, solving difficulties that are hard to solve by compression seals.

Sealing

LIKON inflatable homogeneous elastomeric seals are used for sealing in all sorts of applications. The shape allows for different ways of expansion. Please contact us for technical assistance and available solutions.

Handling

Benefits

  • easy removal to allow for quick CIP cleaning
  • perfect sealing of crooked sheet metal due to welding
  • simple design, large variety of shapes available
