Rod Seals

SpectraSealSpectraSeal® (PSS-1000)

This catalog explains the SpectraSeal's unique sealing concept. Information regarding applications, features, benefits. SpectraSeals can operate over wide temperature ranges and offer near universal media compatibility. The SpectraSeal consists of a U-shaped jacket made from Spectralloy compounds, and is energized by a stainless steel or *Elgiloy® spring. The exceptional operating temperature range, resistance to most chemicals, and low-friction characteristics make the SpectraSeal an excellent product for a wide range of uses.

Z-Seal Product Line for Dynamic ApplicationsZ-Seal Product Line for Dynamic Applications (ZSM-1000)

The Z-Seal is a squeeze type seal, combining the excellent sealability and low compression set of a soft rubber lip with the greater anti-extrusion characteristics of a hard thermoplastic base. Under low-pressure conditions, the sealing lip provides its own compressive seal force. As pressure increases, hydrostatic pressure is mechanically transmitted through the elastomeric seal element into the anti-extrusion base. The applied force then deflects radially in a controlled manner, closing the extrusion gap behind the sealing lip. Under this condition, maximum sealing effectiveness is achieved.

 

Extended Range Hydraulic Seal LineExtended Range Hydraulic Seal Line (PER-1000)

Highlighting the advanced range of SKF Polyseal Inc products, this brochure covers sealing principles of the lubrithane Polyseal, the Z-Seal and Deep-Z Seal, style selection, excluders, available material combinations, temperature range by polymer, fluid compatibility table, and a problem solvers section.

This brochure is a must for anyone who must deal with fluid power applications.

 

UBR SealsUBR Seals (UBR-1000)

The UBR-style U-cup is a single element seal with generous lead-in angles for simple assembly every time. The 93 Shore A Lubrithane material provide good service from -40F to over 225F in most hydraulic fluids.

The SKF Polyseal Inc UBR Seal provides efficient rod sealing under most conditions. UBR seals combine the latest in rod seal design technology with the advantages of "net molded" manufacturing. Net molded single element seals are simple and repeatable. Since there are no operator dependent processes involved in the manufacture of these seals, each ring will be a replicate of the first.

 

elical Wound Spectraseal ZBR Seal (ZBR-1000)

The ZBR Seal offers several improvements over conventional rod seals. Developed over four years of testing, it provides improved performance based on proven technology. Contact SKF Polyseal Engineering for information.

 

Molded Lip SealsEngineering Guide (MPS 2500)

This design guide and catalog offers detailed information on the use of molded lip seals in reciprocating hydraulic and pneumatic applications. The discussions contained herein on seal shape and material composition represent the current state of the art. it goes far beyond any similar engineering and design activity commonly used in traditional hydraulic and pneumatic sealing design; however, designs for other types of applications are available. Provides recommended grove dimensions for loaded and nonloaded u-cup seals.



 Piston Seals

Crown SealCrown Seal® (CSM-1000)

The Crown Seal is part of the Modular Piston Seal Family. This brochure describes the advantages of selecting an SKF Polyseal Inc Crown Seal. You can find illustrations of typical applications and charts providing information regarding temperature range by polymer. In addition, a chart is provided offering information regarding compound features, recommended service, temperature range, abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, wear resistance and to dtermine gland dimensions.

 

Capped T-SealCapped T-Seal® (CTS-1000)

SKF Polyseal Inc's Capped T-Seal is a double-acting, high-pressure, high performance piston seal, accommodating larger extrusion gaps when used with SKF Polyseal Inc's close tolerance WGT wear rings. Major features include excellent extrusion resistance, low friction and low wear in a compact stable design.

SKF Polyseal Inc's Capped T-Seals are available in a wide range of materials suitable for various fluid power and industrial services. We recommend taking a closer look at the Capped T-Seal. You may find it's just what you are looking for.

 

Modular Piston Seal GroupModular Piston Seal Group (MG-1000)

The SKF Polyseal Inc piston seal group consists of five different styles of piston seals. The Modular Piston Seals will retrofit the same groove. This allows the user to customize the choice of a piston seal to the demands of a particular application.

The brochure includes application guidelines, part numbering guide, and product illustrations.

 

T-Seal Industrial SeriesT-Seal Industrial Series 100 - 400 (TSM-1000)

The T-Seal Industrial Series 100 - 400 Brochure provides useful information to the design engineer such as piston clearance limits, throat clearance limits for rod applications and illustrations of applications. The brochure also includes tables which contain the SKF Polyseal Inc part numbering system for T-Seals, dimensions, and tolerances.

 

Piston RingsPiston Rings (PPR-1000)

The SKF Polyseal Inc Piston Rings are a superior answer to single and double-acting applications. SKF Polyseal Inc Piston Seals are machined to close tolerances. They are used in conjunction with an o-ring or square-ring loader. The Piston Rings are excellent for reciprocating situations, slow rotary and oscillating applications because of their self-lubricating qualities - virtually eliminating slip-stick. SKF Polyseal Inc Piston Rings can be produced for oversize bores where the application requires. In addition, metric sizes are available. SKF Polyseal Inc Piston Seals are a low-cost alternative for many uses.

 

Engineered and Machined Grooved PTFE Piston RingsEngineered and Machined Grooved PTFE Piston Rings (GPR-1000)

The SKF Polyseal Inc Grooved Piston Ring is a high performance, bi-directional seal intended for use where extremely low leakage is required. Low leakage is attained by the high unit loading exerted by the two legs of the piston ring due to the reduced seal footprint. In addition to increasing the unit loading, the groove on the dynamic surface of the seal acts to retain a small amount of lubricant - thus reducing friction and seal wear. Good seal stability is achieved by using a square cut elastomeric energizer. SKF Polyseal Inc uses design criteria taken from many years experience in the machined plastics industry.


Wear Guides

Precision Close Tolerance Wear GuidesPrecision Close Tolerance Wear Guides (WGT-1000)

The SKF Polyseal Inc Close Tolerance Wear Guide brochure is a useful addition to the design engineers technical literature library. The brochure examines features and benefits of utilizing wear guides, typical physical properties, a part number guide, quality assurance information, piston application and corresponding groove dimension calculations, and finally, rod application and corresponding groove dimensions calculations.


Rod Buffer Seals

Buffer SealsBuffer Seals® (BS-1000)

The SKF Polyseal Inc Buffer Seals brochure is an excellent tool for hydraulic system design engineers. It highlights a variety of applications where the buffer seal acts as an effective secondary seal. The brochure provides a list of available materials and PTFE compounds in which we can produce the buffer seals. You will find a list of temperature ranges that covers various applications and service recommendations for each compound. In addition, there are guides to insure the correct energizers are selected and information regarding recommended clearances.
