Piston Seals

Some PS2000 piston seals utilize a round instead of a square energizer. Also, piston diameter “I” dimensions are given for pistons without wear rings. Many sizes shown are completely interchangeable with style PS914 piston seals.

Glass Filled Nylon Material | 1.962 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

This seal, molded from high grade 55D polyurethane, may retrofit the PS1800 seals, considering all dimensions are comparable. This seal material, with a high degree of memory, stretches over the piston and snaps in the groove for immediate assembly. These seals also feature low friction and high abrasion and extrusion resistance which helps to eliminate assembly damage. Piston diameter “I” dimensions are given for pistons without wear rings.

55D Durometer | Glass/PTFE Filled Polyurethane Material | 2.441 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 | 1 1/2 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 | 2 3/8 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

These piston seals provide bi-directional, low friction sealing with increased stability and superior leakage control. The square cut energizer provides low pressure sealing and eliminates backside leakage. This seal also effectively seals between different fluids on each side of the piston seal, making gas/liquid sealing combinations possible. Piston diameter “I” dimensions are given for pistons without wear rings.

40% Bronze Filled PTFE Material | 1.634 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

A heavy duty double-acting assembly, the capped piston T-seal exhibits excellent sealability, extrusion resistance, and wearability. T-seals with “BR” suffix utilize a Bronze Filled PTFE cap instead of the standard Glass Filled PTFE cap.

PTFE; Nylon; Rubber Material | 4.27 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Capped Piston T-Seal

Features

• Glass-filled PTFE cap, nylon back-up, rubber energizer

The Style TP-L seal is a zero drift piston seal for bi-directional pressure applications. The locking anti-extrusion rings provide for an easier installation. It is designed to retrofit O-Ring and standard T-seal grooves. The 70 Shore A NBR is designed specifically for performance in compression type dynamic seals. Other features include a net molded dynamic sealing surface and backup chamfers.

70 Shore A Durometer | Buna-N Rubber Material | 2 1/8 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston T-Seal

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.

Buna-N Rubber Material | 3 5/8 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston T-Seal

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 | 65 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 | 1.733 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities
