Split Ultra-High Pressure Bi-Directional Hydraulic Piston Seal
Split piston cap seal for high-pressure heavy-duty piston sealing applications. The hard wearing, self-lubricated Nylon cap is step cut for easy installation without special installation tools and provides high extrusion resistance for ultra-high pressure spikes up to 12,500psi. This seal is capable of repeatedly passing over cylinder ports. Rectangular energizer ensures a stable, positive seal and provides continuous contact along the sealing surface.
Operating Range
Material | Operating Pressure up to | Maximum Pressure up to | Temperature | Surface Speed up to | Fluid, Media Compatability |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Duraloy 5101 | 5,000psi (350bar) | 10,000psi (700bar) | -40°F to 248°F (-40°C to 120°C) | 3.3ft/s (1m/s) | mineral oil-based fluids, fire-resistant water-based hydraulic fluids including HFA and HFB, sea water, biodegradable fluids, vegetable oils, bio-diesels, and most modern hydraulic fluids |
*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 bore size in 0.001inch increments, including functional range. Additionally, we offer any other seal size as required.
