Piston Seals

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 | 57 MM Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

T-Seals combine a resilient sealing ring with a hard, split back-up ring on each side of the sealing element. The assembly installs in a standard o-ring groove. T-Seals are non-spiraling and extrusion resistant to 5,000 psi with improved tolerances. Intermediate and Wide Base T-Seals are designed to fit MIL-5514F o-ring glands only and interchange with 1 o-ring / 1 back-up ring and 1 o-ring / 2 back-up ring grooves, respectively.

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 | 119 MM 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 | 1.973 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

This two piece piston seal design comes made with a heat-stabilized, thermoplastic step-cut ring along with a profiled NBR energizer. This product offers extreme strength and resistance to extrusion, a very high resistance to abrasion, and ease of installation thanks to the step cut design and chamfered edges. The design also allows the seal to pass over ports without damage and offers greater resistance to surface roughness in comparison to any elastomer seals. The profiled energizer offers improved dynamic sealing ability, responding quickly to pressure changes and providing excellent sealing characteristics under a wide range of pressure conditions.

Glass Filled Nylon Material | 4.74 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 | 2 3/8 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.
