Gas or liquid that naturally flows can be used to transmit energy throughout a system with the addition of an outside force. The reason fluids can transmit energy when a force is placed on them can be explained by the principle of pressure in a confined body of fluid acting equally in all directions. The pressure throughout a sealed system remains continuous. When force is applied, the piston pushes through the cylinder displacing the oil and magnifying the force. The system can efficiently generate a exponential amount of force with just a small amount of force expelled by a human or machine.
These seals are used for maintaining sealing contact between the piston and the cylinder bores. Differential pressures acting on the piston to extend or retract the piston rod can be in excess. The pressure acting on the piston seal increases contact forces between the piston seal and cylinder surface. Therefore, the surface properties of the sealing surfaces are critical to proper seal performance Piston seals are typically classified into single-acting (pressure acting on one side only) and double-acting (pressure acting on both sides) seals.
A bi directional piston seal is used in medium to heavy duty hydraulic actuators. A fluid power seal is a two piece design comprised of a standard size rubber square ring energizing a rectangular shaped PTFE cap. The piston seals from Darcoid offer excellent stability, long wear and tear, low friction and extrusion protection.
Piston seals have been designed specifically to compliment one another to create high performance systems. For instance, pairing a rod seal with a wiper minimizes fluid leakage and maximizes contamination exclusion. These seals are designed with knife trimmed lips to ensure the best possible film breaking. A bi directional fluid power seal is used in medium to heavy duty hydraulic actuators. The seal is commonly used in applications such as agriculture hydraulics, mobile hydraulics, machine tools, and hydraulic presses.
The seal is commonly used in applications such as agriculture hydraulics, mobile hydraulics, machine tools, and hydraulic presses. Darcoid Nor Cal Seal is the world’s leading diversified manufacturer of motion and control technologies and systems, providing precision engineered solutions for a wide variety of commercial, mobile, industrial and aerospace markets. When choosing a sealing system, the desired result is ultimately leakage control. Seal design and material improvements have made it possible not only to have seal combinations that provide zero leakage, but also provide extended life in a variety of applications.
Apart from the seals themselves, a thorough understanding of system parameters is necessary to obtain the best results. Optimal sealing is best achieved by taking a system's approach to the seal package rather than considering components individually.
Darcoid Nor Cal Seal is a leading distributor of various kinds of seals and sealing aids. The company has been providing standard and custom made aids for a wide range of applications and industries for a long time as an industry leader and has been providing sealing solutions of top quality and high standards to various sectors where quality is of utmost importance.
Rod Seals
Seals have been used since ancient times and have evolved into a wide variety of shapes and materials.Rotary Shaft Seals
The rotary shaft seal is used for excluding dirt, dust, water or other particles, while retaining lubricant in rotary shaft equipment. It was developed as a means of protecting bearings of rotating shafts.Integral Seals from Darcoid Norcal Seal
An integral seal is named so because it effectively integrates a stamped or machined metal or molded plastic retainer with a molded in place rubber sealing element to create an extremely versatile sealing device.
