Hydraulic Piston Rod Seals

Hydraulic seals are essential components designed to prevent the leakage of
hydraulic fluids, ensuring the smooth operation of hydraulic systems. These
seals are pivotal in various machinery applications, including construction
equipment, industrial machinery, automotive systems, and aerospace
technologies. The correct seal selection directly influences the performance
and longevity of equipment, thereby highlighting the importance of quality
manufacturing and material selection.
Types of Hydraulic Piston and Rod Seal
1. Piston Seals
Piston seals are designed to create a tight seal between the piston and the
cylinder in hydraulic actuators. They perform two primary functions: preventing
fluid leakage from the pressure side to the low-pressure side and maintaining
the hydraulic pressure needed for effective operation. Piston seals are
manufactured to handle high pressures and dynamic movements, making them
crucial for efficient hydraulic performance.
