RDS ROD SEAL Double-Acting

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides technical specifications and guidelines for the Hallite RDS, a double-acting low-friction rod seal designed for compact o-ring grooves. It is suitable for light-duty applications, particularly in pneumatic and hydraulic equipment.
Specifications: The RDS seal is available in both metric and inch measurements. It supports a maximum speed of 15.0 m/sec (metric) and 50.0 ft/sec (inch), with a temperature range of -45 to 200°C (-49 to 392°F) and a maximum dynamic pressure of 350 bar (5000 psi).
Materials: The seal is made from high-performance Armorlene® materials, such as HLX, which offer excellent wear and extrusion resistance. The document lists various energizer materials like NBR, FKM, and EPDM, each with specific temperature ranges and applications.
Installation Recommendations: Detailed guidelines are provided for groove dimensions, surface finish, and radial clearance for both metric and inch systems. The document emphasizes the importance of matching the seal with appropriate energizer materials for optimal performance.
Applications: The RDS is recommended for use in standard AS-568 dynamic o-ring grooves and fits groove dimensions per MIL-G-5514F. It is ideal for light-duty and smaller-diameter applications, offering low breakout friction and eliminating stick-slip action.
Part Number Structure: The document outlines the part number structure for ordering, which includes designations for rod diameter, energizer material, and special features.
Notes: The document advises consulting Hallite for custom sizes, material selection, or seal design, and highlights that maximum ratings of temperature, pressure, or operating speeds depend on various factors.

RDS ROD SEAL Double-Acting-1

TECHNICAL DETAILS The Hallite RDS is a double-acting low-friction rod seal solution for compact o-ring grooves, that extends the service range above what an o-ring alone is capable of supporting. The RDS is designed for light-duty applications, is particularly suited for small-diameter installations, and due to its size and design, is easy to install. Highperformance Armorlene® materials, like HLX, provide outstanding wear and extrusionresistance properties as well as large range of temperature and media compatibility. Hallite’s RDS is designed to be used in existing dynamic o-ring grooves and does not require any groove modification. A good choice for pneumatic and hydraulic equipment sealing needs, the RDS is proven to extend the service range and seal longevity over stand-alone o-ring installations. This seal is available in a variety of Hallite’s high-performance Armorlene® materials to suit a wide range of demanding applications. • Compact design to save metal spacing • Can be used in standard AS-568 dynamic o-ring groove • Low breakout friction and elimination of stick-slip action • Fits groove dimensions per MIL-G-5514F • Effective in pneumatic cylinder and light-duty hydraulic cylinder • Recommended for light-duty and smaller-diameter applications Part Number Structure RDSMR00700NHLX _ M UNIT OF MEASUREMENT M = Metric E = Inch Refer to Installation Recommendations and use designator for desired application Metric = mm X 10 Inch = inches X 1000 ENERGIZER MATERIAL PTFE MATERIAL SPECIAL FEATURE Refer to Energizer Table for desired energizer material Refer to Material Table for desired PTFE (face) material Blank = Std profile N = Notches
