Seals,
sealing elements for hydraulics
and pneumatics

Gaskets – Standardized elements and custom CNC production

We offer a complete range of sealing components that are primarily used in hydraulic and pneumatic equipment, but we can also address the need for sealing in many other applications. In addition to a wide range of gaskets in standardized designs and dimensions, we are also engaged in CNC manufacturing and can produce custom gaskets exactly according to the requirement in a very short time.

SEALS FOR HYDRAULICS AND PNEUMATICS

Standard sealing elements

Seals used in hydraulics and pneumatics that are manufactured in standardized size ranges and materials. The advantage is the lower price due to the large-scale production. The disadvantage is often a lower availability of pieces and also a limited area of use.

To ensure maximum availability, we work closely with several leading European manufacturers and keep the most commonly used types and sizes in stock.

  • wiper rings, piston rings, piston seals, guide rings, static, rotary, pneumatic elements, bearings, o-rings, v-rings and many other sealing elements

  • we keep a large number of standard parts in stock for immediate collection

  • production according to UNI EN ISO 9001:2015 and IATF 16949, production process control according to DIN ISO 2859-1 AQL 1,5

SEALS – CUSTOM SEALING ELEMENTS

Our CNC seal production

In practice, there are cases when a standardized solution cannot be used for various reasons. For these situations we offer the possibility of our own CNC production. Production is possible from 1 piece without the need for mould costs etc. However, thanks to the automation features, we can also produce large series efficiently.

We keep a range of basic materials in stock to ensure that we are able to respond flexibly to urgent requirements or the need for piece quantities only.

  • production on a CNC machine up to a diameter of 500 mm (larger diameters in cooperation)
  • production of all hydraulic, pneumatic seals including atypical profiles and shapes

  • design of custom technical and material solutions according to application requirements

  • flexible and short delivery times thanks to our extensive stock of semi-finished products

SEALS FOR HYDRAULICS AND PNEUMATICS
Seal design and mechanics

When designing a solution, several factors must be taken into account to determine the ideal choice of profile and material.

These include pressure, temperature, velocity, chemical environment, friction, the way the functional surfaces are treated and other factors.
Based on these factors, we select the sealing element that ideally meets the requirements of the application and guarantees a high sealing effect and durability.

Requirements for the quality of functional areas

Particular attention should be paid to the surface design of the functional surfaces.

The purpose is to ensure a surface quality that minimizes abrasion and wear on the seal.

The piston rod seal, which seals against the moving surface, can be damaged by fine abrasive particles which may adhere to the rough surface. Therefore, the bars should have a low surface roughness value, and the surface should be similar to hard chrome and rust-proof. The ideal surface roughness is somewhere around 0.3 µm (Ra) or 2.3 µm (Rt).

The piston seal, which seals against the inner surface of the cylinder, is not exposed to the same range of abrasive particles entering from the atmosphere and can therefore handle rougher surfaces. The ideal surface roughness is somewhere around 0.5 µm (Ra) or 3.7 µm (Rt). The operating pressure must be taken into account when assessing the surface properties. At higher operating pressures, the film between the seal and the sealing surface is thinner and friction is greater. Under such operating conditions, the smallest possible surface roughness should be selected.
The surface quality for static sealing should be around 1 µm (Ra) or 7 µm (Rt).

Detailed information on construction, design and other technical information can be found in our catalogue.
