Meet Tom Stabosz, Triad’s Ohio Seal Sales Engineer

Often, seemingly small components play the biggest roles in preventing downtime, ensuring efficiency, and safeguarding critical systems – this is especially true for sealing technologies. From small O-rings to complex gaskets, these sealing technologies play a vital role in preventing leaks, contamination, and premature wear, ensuring your machines operate at peak efficiency. At Triad Technologies, we understand the importance of reliable sealing solutions. That’s why we offer a comprehensive portfolio of seals, gaskets, O-rings, and related services to ensure you have the right sealing solution for your unique application.
Many of our customers are aware that Triad expanded our offering to seals and related solutions in 2023 with the acquisition of Tech-Syn. However, since Tech-Syn is based in Illinois, it can be difficult for Ohio-based customers to determine which services and solutions are available to them. That is why we are excited to introduce Tom Stabosz, our dedicated Seal Sales Engineer for the Ohio market, an industry veteran with expertise in a wide variety of sealing technologies.


Tom Stabosz isn't just a sales engineer; he's an authority in the world of seals. Before joining the Triad team, Tom worked for Parker Hannifin's Cylinder Division as a Design Engineer. In this role, Tom solved real-world seal application challenges for major companies and was responsible for the design and testing of Parker's 2H serrated TS2000 rod seal package. He even holds a patent for a self-lubricating seal system for pneumatic cylinders. His hands-on experience in premature failure analysis, wear, compatibility, and temperature issues makes him uniquely equipped to tackle even the most complex sealing challenges.
Though he has worn many different hats over the last 35 years, today, Tom is back to where it all began: supporting seal business in Ohio and the surrounding region. As Triad’s local seal expert, Tom works closely with leading manufacturers like Parker, Freudenberg-NOK, Kalrez®, and Hallite to ensure that we are able to provide top-tier sealing products to our Ohio customers. Triad is proud to carry a variety of solutions at every price point while maintaining the quality and reliability you deserve.
