Piston seals
Piston Seals
Piston seals are components used in hydraulic and pneumatic systems to ensure the tightness of piston movement in cylinders. Their primary function is to prevent fluid leaks and to ensure smooth and efficient operation of the actuator. These seals are mounted on the piston within the cylinder and prevent the leakage of oil or other working mediums outside the cylinder. Depending on the type of system, they can be used in various industrial sectors, from automotive to machinery, and from chemical to agricultural industries. Their design and material can vary based on the specific application and operational requirements.
Packaged Seals
One popular type of piston seal is the 5-element packaged seal, consisting of layers of NBR (nitrile rubber), TPE (thermoplastic elastomer), and POM (polyoxymethylene). These types of seals are known for their high resistance to abrasion, oils, and other chemicals, making them effective in various industrial hydraulic systems.
We also offer 4-element piston seals made of NBR (nitrile rubber), PU (polyurethane), or PTFE, and POM (polyoxymethylene). These are used in actuators where effective piston sealing is necessary while also providing mechanical strength and abrasion resistance.
Another type of packaged seal includes PTFE + 40% Bronze ring and NBR O-ring. These are used in applications requiring high-quality sealing while also providing mechanical strength and resistance to high pressure and temperature.
Characteristics of Piston Seals
Piston seals made from polyurethane or a combination of polyurethane and POM are commonly used in hydraulic and pneumatic systems. Their simple design and effectiveness in providing tightness make them a popular choice in various hydraulic systems used in industry and agriculture.
They are characterized by a simple structure, usually consisting of one or two elements, which facilitates their installation and replacement. Materials such as polyurethane and POM (polyoxymethylene) used in these seals ensure high resistance to environmental conditions, pressure, and abrasion. Moreover, they are flexible, which allows them to effectively adapt to the movement of the piston while providing a reliable seal. Compact piston seals find wide application across various industries, from automotive to construction machinery, to agricultural and food industries. They are used wherever reliable tightness of piston movement in cylinders is required.
Our piston seals provide reliable sealing of piston movement in cylinders, eliminating the risk of fluid leaks and ensuring smooth and effective operation of the actuator. The piston seals we offer are indispensable elements in hydraulic systems, ensuring the efficiency and reliability of the entire system.
