If your equipment runs hot, regular seals won\u2019t last \u2014 and failure can be catastrophic.<\/p>\n<p>High-temperature sealing requires the right materials and designs to handle extreme environments. Here\u2019s how I help customers prevent failures in real-world high-heat operations.<\/p>\n<p>From engine compartments to industrial furnaces, sealing at 150\u00b0C+ is no joke. Choosing the wrong seal could mean downtime, leaks, or even full equipment shutdown.<\/p>\n<h2>What Causes Seal Failure at High Temperatures?<\/h2>\n<p>The most common causes are material degradation, thermal expansion mismatch, and insufficient lubrication.
