The HMT Scissor Shoe Primary Seal is the primary seal of choice for external floating roofs. The original scissor shoe seal was invented by HMT in 1987, and the design has been continuously refined since then. To this day, it remains the most widely utilized and successful primary seal in the industry. The reasons are clear: it works and it’s extremely durable.
For a primary seal that will last, perform well through heavy use, adapt to tank roundness anomalies, span a wide range of rim spaces, and most importantly, maintain tank-shell contact resulting in no gaps, choose the HMT Scissor Shoe.
