ROD SEALS
3Pages

ROD SEALS The task of rod seals is to seal the piston rod as it moves in and out in order to prevent the pressurized media from passing out of the cylinder. The seal material and the profile of the rod seal must be selected to suit the application and conditions of use. DIMENSIONS The currently available dimensions can be found on our website dichtomatik.fst.com or on our online ordering platform EASY. SEALING MATERIALS NBR (acrylonitrile butadiene rubber) Due to their good mechanical properties and their resistance to lubricating oils and greases based on mineral oils, seals made of NBR are suited to a broad range of hydraulic applications. TPU (Thermoplastic polyurethane) TPU stands out for its mechanical strength and resistance to ozone and aging. TPU is only hydrolysis-resistant up to +50°C. PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) PTFE has very good slide characteristics and can be used in a wide range of temperatures. In addition, PTFE exhibits nearly unlimited resistance to chemicals, ozone and aging. Fillers such as bronze, graphite and coal influence the characteristics of the material in line with the requirements. MEDIA RESISTANCE Acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), thermoplastic polyurethane TPU) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) are resistant to • Hydraulic oils in accordance with DIN 51524 Part 1 - 3 • Lubricating oils and greases based on mineral oil • Fire-resistant hydraulic fluids: HFA, HFB, HFC in accordance with VDMA 24317 APPLICATIONS Due to the wide range of rod seal geometries, these products can be used in diverse ways, such as in • Agricultural machinery • Construction machinery • Truck-loading cranes • Injection-molding machines • Handling devices • Industrial trucks • Standard cylinders • Presses • Switch valves • and many more FREUDENBERC INNOVATING TOGETHER
