Dry gas seals are used in turbocompressors, main pumps, and other plants to seal the superchargers shafts, and to prevent gas leaking.

At the moments of starting the plants, seal rings made of tungsten carbide are rubbing along one another what lead to their wear. This occurs before forming gas wedge between them.

In order to extend service lifetime of the dry gas seals, MODENGY 1006 anti-friction solid-film coating based on molybdenum disulfide and graphite is applied onto the ring surfaces facing each other. This reduces friction between the contacting surfaces decreasing parts wear, and eliminating excessive noise while the superchargers are operating.
