Guide Rings

In the catalog, you will find various types of standard seals (injection molded production). For detailed technical information on individual types (maximum operating pressure, temperature, speed, etc.), please contact us.

The installation space for guide rings typically takes the form of a wide and not too deep rectangular groove. Multiple guide rings are often used to ensure the best possible guidance between the piston and cylinder or piston rod and head. Guide rings are also typically split, which facilitates installation and improves lubrication of the entire system.

When designing and manufacturing installation spaces for guide rings, it is necessary to follow recommendations that are generally applicable for the construction of sealing elements. In particular, it is essential to maintain surface roughness of the sealing groove Ra ≤ 1.6μm and Rt ≤ 6.3 μm, and before installation, also verify that the sealing groove is cleaned of possible contaminants and there are no sharp edges, burrs, or other surface imperfections at the given location.

Thanks to our technological equipment, we can manufacture sealing elements (and more) up to an outer diameter of 505 mm. However, in cooperation with verified international partners, we can also offer seals of significantly larger diameters.

We maintain a large stock of basic materials, from the smallest sizes up to diameters exceeding 500 mm. This enables us to respond flexibly to urgent requests. We typically manufacture seals within a few days, but in case of need (e.g., breakdowns, urgent repairs of hydraulic equipment), we can produce seals virtually on demand.

We manufacture sealing elements starting from a single piece. However, thanks to the automation elements we utilize in production, we can also efficiently produce large series. We use a wide range of machining tools specifically developed for manufacturing seals and machining specific sealing materials. This enables us to produce many non-standard profiles and shapes, or to perform shape and dimensional modifications of standard profiles.
