For use as either rod or piston seal in slow dynamic and static sealing applications that require redundant sealing lips. The HS-spring provides the highest progressive spring load and the smallest deflection range of all spring types, making it ideal for low pressure, vacuum and cryogenic sealing applications.
vacuum service, aggressive chemicals, NACE service, chlorine service, cryogenic service, FDA (both contact and non-contact), fugitive emissions, as well as control fluids, hydraulic fluids, dry running in a wide range of gases
Material Permachem xxxx will be selected by AHPSeals to match your operating conditions.
*Important Note: Maximum values above depend on extrusion gap, clearances, seal material, media, temperatures, pressures, surface speed, dynamic running surface finish and working environment. Seals cannot be operated at their upper ratings at the same time. For pressure above 3.000psi (210bar)or temperature above 200°F (95°C), please contact engineering for seal material and hardware specification.
Size Table (Inch)The standard range sizes listed below are the preferred sizes for new design applications. Seals are available for any size in 0.001inch increments, including functional range. Additionally, we offer any other seal size as required.
