Product overviewHydraulic cylinder seals provide sealing and guidance for pistons in hydraulic cylinders and are essential to maintain system pressure and enable controlled piston movement. Typical materials include rubber, PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) and polyurethane, selected according to application requirements.
Material selection and operating conditionsWhen choosing seal materials and designs, consider the following operating parameters:
- Temperature
- System pressure
- Media (hydraulic fluid type and contaminants)
- Surface roughness
- System tolerances
- Sliding speed
Availability & RangeInternational brand seals and complete seal kits are available for standard metric and imperial bore sizes and common compound specifications.
