Floating seal product lines for heavy equipment & OEM programs

Duo-cone DO/DF seals, XY profiles, seal rings and mechanical face seals—dimension checks, sample matching and export packing for mines, construction fleets and gearbox rebuilders worldwide.

Four floating seal categories — specs, duty & housing fit

Each line uses controlled alloy casting, CNC machining and precision lapping so sealing faces stay stable in mud, dust and shock-load duty. Tell us your hub drawing or OEM reference—we confirm dimensions before production.

Use the sections below to compare geometry and typical applications. Every series supports export documentation and repeat-order traceability.

DO type duo-cone floating seal metal rings for excavator final drive

DO floating seal

Symmetric duo-cone geometry for high contamination exclusion on excavators, bulldozers and tracked loaders. Strong choice when housing volume allows a balanced metal ring pair and robust mud rejection at the lip.

  • Mining & quarry crawlers, construction final drives, large agricultural axles
  • OEM-style hardness targets and batch certificates available
  • Compatible with grease or oil-bathed hubs when cavity layout matches DO envelope
Type DF mechanical face seal with diamond-profile elastomer

DF floating seal

Type DF mechanical face seal: diamond-profile elastomer loader instead of a circular O-ring. Specified when axial housing depth is limited or the bore pocket is square — not because the external duty is lighter than DO.

  • Short final-drive hubs, square-bore track rollers, controlled axial end-play layouts
  • Less axial envelope than equivalent DO; installation tool loads ring I.D. only
  • Choose DF for packaging; choose DO for maximum float under shock and contamination
XY matched X and Y ring floating seal group for heavy machinery

XY floating seal

Matched X-ring + Y-ring seal group in FC15Cr3Mo alloy — complementary halves, not two identical rings. Heavy-load, higher-speed duty on crawlers, conveyors, shearers and industrial reducers (e.g. Caterpillar 6V2733 class).

  • Excavator/bulldozer undercarriage, mining conveyors, mixer and reducer auxiliary seals
  • HRC 65–72; catalog O.D. approx. 45–1,425 mm; max ~3 m/s / ~0.3 MPa reference
  • Always replace X and Y halves together with both elastomer loaders

Seal rings & mechanical face seals

Component and assembly supply: loose alloy seal rings, matched pairs (including X/Y halves), or complete mechanical face seal kits — two lapped metal rings plus two toric elastomer loaders per group.

  • OEM lines, dealer rebuild programmes, ring-only orders for local elastomer moulding
  • 15Cr3Mo casting, heat treatment, CNC and twin-face lapping in-house at Xuzhou
  • Reverse engineering from worn sample; replace both rings and both elastomers on rebuild

Same sealing physics—different contamination and shock profiles. Match product families above to these duty descriptions or send your machine model for a recommendation.

Construction machinery assembly area — floating seals for excavators and bulldozers

Construction machinery

Excavators, bulldozers and track systems in muddy, dusty and high-impact jobsites. DF and DO profiles dominate where roller and final-drive hubs see constant grit ingress.

  • Typical mounts: track rollers, final drives, idlers
  • Prioritize mud exclusion and rebuild interval extension
Track rollers Final drives Idlers
Mining floating seals for loaders conveyors and cutting equipment

Mining equipment

Loaders, conveyors and cutting systems exposed to abrasive dust, slurry and overload cycles. Metal face pairs sized for shock and sustained contamination loading.

  • Specify seal family after confirming speed and lubricant type
  • OEM batch traceability for pit compliance programs
Loaders Conveyors Cutting systems
Agricultural tractors and harvesters using duo cone floating seals

Agricultural machinery

Tractors and harvesters working through mud and moisture for entire seasons. Compact DF housings often fit narrow axle stubs while DO covers heavy articulated frames.

  • Season-length reliability reduces in-field downtime
  • Elastomer choice aligned to biodiesel and regional temperatures
Tractors Harvesters Axle systems
Tunnel boring machine drive sealed with XY floating seals

Tunnel boring machines

High-pressure slurry and cutter-head drives where any leakage accelerates wear on main bearings. XY geometries frequently pair with large-section cutter transmissions.

  • Coordinate with main bearing supplier clearances
  • Engineering sign-off on pressure and cooling assumptions
Main bearings Cutter heads Drive systems
Heavy duty sealing context for military tracked vehicles

Military vehicles

Tracked platforms and suspension components exposed to ballistic vibration and harsh terrain. Seal pairs specified for shock tolerance and extended maintenance windows.

  • Controlled alloy grades for demanding specifications
  • Documentation packages available for tender submissions
Suspension Tracked systems Final drives
Industrial gearbox and wind turbine drivetrain sealing applications

Heavy-duty gearboxes

Industrial gearboxes and wind-power drivetrains under continuous rotation and thermal cycling. Mechanical face seal assemblies sized for bearing proximity and lubricant film stability.

  • Supports rebuild programmes with predictable leak rates
  • Coordinate housing stiffness and face load with our engineers
Gear systems Wind power Industrial drives

Buying & specification FAQ

Quick answers for procurement and maintenance teams—contact us for document-backed replies.

What data do you need to quote a floating seal?

Ideally an OEM part number, seal assembly drawing or hub cross-section with groove dimensions. Photos of the installed seal, operating fluid type and peak temperature accelerate feasibility checks.

Do you export outside China?

Yes—HuaTong ships floating seals globally with export packing and commercial invoices suited to freight forwarders. Share incoterms preference when requesting pricing.

Can you cross-reference another manufacturer’s seal?

In many cases yes. Send the competitor number or a physical sample; our engineering desk verifies metal ring geometry, elastomer groove and interference targets before confirming fit.

How soon can engineering respond?

During business hours (Asia time) we typically acknowledge RFQs within one working day. Complex reverse-engineering jobs may require dimensional measurement at our facility—timeline communicated upfront.
