UR rod-seal selection starts with the hardware dimensions and the operating envelope of the cylinder. Pressure, reciprocating speed and temperature should be supplied together, including intermittent peaks. A drawing or sample is used to confirm the intended cross-section before reviewing material and fit.
Typical applications
- Hydraulic cylinder rod-sealing inquiries
- Replacement or new-build cylinders with defined operating conditions
What to include in an inquiry
- Provide a UR seal section drawing and rod and groove dimensions
- State continuous and peak pressure
- Give reciprocating speed, stroke length and duty cycle
- Identify fluid and minimum and maximum operating temperature
- Include extrusion clearance and any backup or buffer elements
