Ultra-High Pressure Bi-Directional Piston Seal with Load-Bearing Live Back-Up Rings
Heavy-duty squeeze-type piston seal for use on vertical or no-drift piston. L-shaped heavy-duty back-up rings handle larger clearances, misalignment and high pressures and are also easier to assemble. Maximum pressure rating 10,000psi dynamic and 20,000psi static. Requires split piston design for smaller diameters for easier fitment.

Additional standard materials available: High-performance polyurethanes, NBR (Nitrile), FKM, Viton®, HNBR, EPDM, Aflas®, Hytrel®, Silicone, low- and high-temperature, FDA-compliant seal material grades, PTFE, filled PTFE®, engineered thermoplastics and proprietary specialized Duralast™, Duraloy™, and Permachem™ materials.
*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, please contact engineering@ahpseals.com
