Piston Seals
Piston seals form a dynamic sealing interface between a piston and the cylinder bore. They limit fluid passage between chambers as the piston moves.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Elastomeric, polyurethane and energised PTFE constructions provide different combinations of friction, wear and pressure response. Bore finish, alignment and extrusion gaps matter alongside the seal material.
What turns activity into demand
A piston seal affects the pressure separation that produces cylinder force. Replacement demand follows motion and loading, not simply the number of hydraulic machines. Separate piston seals from rod seals, wear rings and complete cylinder assemblies. Internal leakage and external leakage are different measures.
The commercial boundary
Separate piston seals from rod seals, wear rings and complete cylinder assemblies. Internal leakage and external leakage are different measures.
