Piston Seals

Molded from filled PTFE and machined to close tolerances, these seals feature low friction and excellent wear characteristics. Nitrile rings are used for energizers.

70A Durometer | PTFE Material | 44 MM Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

The PS1850 piston seal can be used interchangeably with the PS1800 style piston seal. This seal provides improved heat resistance for demanding applications. Piston diameter “I” dimensions are given for pistons without wear rings.

Bronze Filled PTFE Material | 5 1/4 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

The Style PSC is a double acting piston seal designed to replace o-rings, quad-rings, and T-seals with the same groove dimensions (O-ring dash number). Style 575 urethane back-up rings may be added to either or both sides of the “PSC” to accommodate wider groove widths. The PSC is made of 95A Durometer polyurethane, giving it high extrusion and abrasion resistance. The crowned sealing surface produces a positive seal from vacuum to high pressure. Hercules® Sealing Products also offers a wide base (WB) Style PSC piston seal. These wide base seals have the same characteristics of the standard PSC seals but offer a wider base, eliminating the need to use back-up rings to accommodate wider grooves. Piston diameter “I” dimensions are given for piston without wear rings.

95A; 70A Durometer | Polyurethane Material | 3 5/8 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

Molded from 93 Shore A polyurethane with a 70 Shore A energizer, this seal utilizes the same groove dimensions as a standard o-ring or T-seal. One or two Style 575 back-up rings may be used for wider grooves. Extrusion resistant by design, this seal is also resistant to rolling and twisting. Installation is an easy two step snap-in procedure with no need to re-size before insertion into the bore. Piston diameter “I” dimensions are given for pistons without wear rings.

93A; 70A Durometer | Urethane Material | 3 5/8 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

Designed to fit on one or two piece pistons, this piston seal employs a nitrile seal for high sealability, nylon split back-ups for extrusion resistance, and two split bearing rings. No further support bearings are required.

70A Durometer | NBR Material | 60 MM Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

Molded from tough, wear resistant 55D polyester, these seals are for light to medium duty applications and are interchangeable with the style MPS seals of the same dimensions. Nitrile rings are used for energizers.

55D; 70A Durometer | Polyester Material | 64.5 MM Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

The PS1400 seals offer low friction and high strength in a compact double-acting piston seal design. The PTFE seal ring, combined with a rubber energizer, assures positive contact with the dynamic surface. The PS1400 is designed to fit ANSI/B93.32-1973 groove standards. Piston diameter “I” dimensions are given for pistons without wear rings.

15% Glass Filled PTFE Material | 4.608 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

Totally interchangeable with Style PS1400 PTFE piston seals, Style PS1500 piston seals are molded from tough 60 Shore D durometer polyurethane. During the molding process, a .002” thick band of molybdenum disulfide is molded into the outside diameter of the seal ring for reduced friction. PS1500 piston seals are easily stretched over the piston and recover rapidly with the elimination of the “cold flow” characteristics found in PTFE seals. Piston diameter “I” dimensions are given for pistons without wear rings.

60 Shore D Durometer | Polyurethane Material | 3.606 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

Piston diameter “I” dimensions are given for pistons without wear rings.

15% Glass Filled PTFE Material | 2.223 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

The PS1850 piston seal can be used interchangeably with the PS1800 style piston seal. This seal provides improved heat resistance for demanding applications. Piston diameter “I” dimensions are given for pistons without wear rings.

Bronze Filled PTFE Material | 7 1/4 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features
