Rathbone Precision Metals, Inc. manufactures this stainless steel seal strip for use in a power plant turbine. The requirements call for a very thin J-edge profile, and our cold rolled process delivers the profile with precise tolerances that enable the seal strip to withstand conditions of the power generation environment. Working with 410 Stainless Steel, we cold roll this .480″ wide, .100″ high seal strip into the J-configuration, holding tolerances to ±.005″ on the width as low as ± .001″ on the height. We supply the strip to the customer in pancake wound spools.
Rathbone’s many years of experience enables us to create profiles that offer the most precise and economical solution for your custom engineered components.
