Premium Low-Friction High-Pressure Bi-Directional Hydraulic Piston Seal

Rectangular energizer ensures a stable, positive seal and provides continuous contact along the sealing surface. The filled-PTFE cap provides low friction and smooth operation for hydraulic cylinders over a wide range of high-pressure sealing applications. Back-up rings handle larger clearances, elevated temperatures, misalignment, high pressures and ultra-high pressure spikes. The small axial seal height reduces piston height, weight and cost. Retro fits seals of similar design.

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. Pressure ratings can be increased by reducing clearances. For pressure above specified operating pressure or for any advice, please contact engineering@ahpseals.com
