"Meridiano Tépido - Unipessoal Lda" (TM ProHydraulics) supplies inflatable pneumatic seals designed for demanding sealing applications where conventional static seals cannot provide reliable performance.
Pneumatic inflatable seals — also known as air-inflated seals — represent the most effective sealing technique for moving surfaces, irregular geometries, and applications requiring controlled actuation. The seal expands when pressurized with air or another medium and retracts when the pressure is released, creating or releasing a tight seal on demand.
