Rod Seal, Single Acting, Hydraulics
Technical diagram of a blue mechanical part with a rectangular shape and an angled cut, labeled with a dimension 'H' indicating height.
Technical engineering drawing of a mechanical part with dimensions and angles, highlighting rounded and burr-free edges.

The dimensions s + c are dependent on the respective seal type.

  • Asymmetrical Rod Seal

  • Tight fit on outer diameter for a stable hold in housing design

  • Good return characteristics, low stick-slip tendency

  • Secondary seal in combination with PTFE Rod Seal RS129

Diagram showing four types of motion: linear, static, oscillating, and screwing.

Brightened symbols: seal only for limited use.
