Published: 6th November 2024 | Issue 96 Share article:

For over 25 years MOONTOWN LTD have been acknowledged as a seal manufacturer who recognise the demanding sealing requirements the valve industry need – quality, reliability, value & service. Our PTFE Spring Energised Seals, Valve Seats, Butterfly Valve Seals, Metal Seals (C Rings/O Rings), Hydraulic & Pneumatic Seals and Sanitary Seals are used throughout the world and our reputation as a trusted partner is well known throughout the industry.

Formed in 1996 the company has continued to expand and moved into a brand-new, purpose-built factory in Hucknall, East Midlands in October 2024. We focus primarily on the Oil/Gas & Energy sectors but have a strong foothold in Hydraulics, Pneumatics, Marine, Machine Tools, Food, Motorsport, Semi-Conductor & MRO.

We are proud to manufacture in the UK "From Powder to Part" having complete control of all aspects of the seal manufacturing process and offer seals from 1mm > 2000mm from standard profiles or to your bespoke requirements. We offer a complete 3D CAD seal design service, on site PTFE billet production, in house spring winding, advanced CNC manufacturing process and EDM facilities for tool making. With no tooling or minimum quantities, we can satisfy any requirement from special "one offs" to production runs at the highest standards in a range of materials including those with NORSOK, API 6A & FDA approvals at competitive pricing with deliveries to suit.

Our in-house PTFE Billet production capabilities ensure we can be relied upon to have complete control over production, quality and delivery lead time – we can react and adapt with our client’s needs, crucial as down time can be extremely costly and inconvenient.  All eight of our high-performance PEEK and PTFE materials suited for Sour Gas, Oil Production etc are approved and certified to the relevant NORSOK and API regulations. Aside from these we can offer one of the largest ranges of standard & performance PTFE materials in Europe from which our incredible range of Spring Energised Seals, Rotary Seals and Hydraulic Seals are produced with a huge range of springs, all wound and joined in house. Seal energisers can be supplied to suit standard or bespoke dimensions in NBR, HNBR, Silicone, EPDM or FPM. Elgiloy or Phynox energiser materials are approved to NACE MR0 175.

MOONTOWN also manufacture a vast range of standard and bespoke profiles in a huge range of high-performance materials including NBR, FPM, POLYURETHANE, SILICONE & EPDM including X Ray and Metal Detectable variants with FDA, WRC & WRAS approved material available from stock.

As a manufacturer we have the expertise to advise upon suitable materials, seal profiles and offer a sample manufacture service.  We will gladly make site visits with full reporting back up and 3D CAD drawings to support new designs or reverse engineered solutions.
