Seals for Oil and Gas Valves

Precision Components for Reliable Valve Sealing in HPHT Environments


Seals for Oil and Gas Valves - Align MFG Parts Manufacturing
Overview

Valve Seals Part Manufacturing

Seals are critical to ensuring the reliability, safety, and efficiency of valves operating in oil and gas fields. Poor sealing performance can lead to leakage, production downtime, and even catastrophic well control failures.

Align Manufacturing supports valve OEMs and energy system builders with precision-machined metallic seals, gland components, and seal carriers built for extreme service conditions. Produced in facilities across India, Vietnam, and Thailand, our components meet U.S. engineering standards for oilfield performance, without the lead time uncertainty often associated with offshore sourcing.

Key Features

Valve Seal Components We Manufacture

  • Metallic Valve Seats
    Machined from carbon steel, stainless steel, or Inconel alloys for high-pressure sealing.

  • Seal Retainers and Carriers
    Custom-machined to securely house elastomeric or thermoplastic seals.

  • Gland Flanges and Stem Seals
    Supporting dynamic sealing around valve stems in gate, plug, and ball valves.

  • Back-Up Rings
    Metallic or thermoplastic rings that reinforce primary seals under pressure cycling.

  • Custom Seal Inserts
    Precision grooves, O-ring housings, and interface surfaces to API 6A standards

Seals and Valve Performance: Critical Linkages

In valve systems, seals are more than passive elements — they are the critical barrier between production fluids and the environment. Especially in manifold systems and pressure control skids, a single seal failure can halt operations or lead to safety events.

By ensuring that metallic seals, seal carriers, and gland components are precision-machined and material-matched to service conditions, Align helps our customers maximize cycle life and minimize unplanned maintenance.
