Seal systems

Individual components

Modern sealing system are composed of various individual components (e.g. sealing ring, supporting ring, wiper, etc.), each of which has its corresponding purpose. Adapting them properly to the particular operational requirements has a decisive effect on how long hydraulic cylinders can operate without faults. Among other things, this means that seals that provide proper sealing under high pressures are not necessarily suitable for low pressures.
