Piston Seals

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 | 7 1/2 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston T-Seal

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 | 4.02 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Capped Piston T-Seal

Features

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

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

90A Durometer | Nitrile Material | 3 1/2 in Nominal Inner Diameter | Piston Seal

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

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.

Features

• Easy assembly
• Low friction capabilities

These Style PSC are molded from Fluorotrel which is a tough, wear-resistant material able to run at temperatures up to 275 °F (requires FKM energizer). Fluorotrel is also resistant to fluids that are incompatible with polyurethane such as water, glycol, water in oil, mineral oil and petroleum. Consult our Engineering Department for other fluids compatible with Fluorotrel. Piston diameter “I” dimensions are given for pistons without wear rings.
