Product Description

Overview

Polypac guide rings for hydraulic seals are designed to keep pistons and rods aligned while reducing friction and wear. Built from high-quality materials and produced on advanced equipment, our guide rings improve seal life and system reliability in a wide range of hydraulic applications.

Key Features

Low Friction & Long Life

Engineered for smooth motion, our guide rings reduce surface contact and heat build-up. This lowers wear on both the ring and mating parts, extending service intervals and reducing maintenance costs.

Excellent Wear & Chemical Resistance

Available in PTFE composites and engineered elastomers, Polypac guide rings resist abrasion, oils and common hydraulic fluids. This makes them suitable for heavy-duty and harsh environments.

Precise Fit & Easy Installation

Manufactured to tight tolerances, our guide rings ensure consistent clearance and alignment. They are simple to install and compatible with common shaft and cylinder sizes, making replacements fast and reliable.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I use a spring-energized seal instead of a standard elastomeric seal?
Consider a spring-energized seal (e.g., GSF, SPN types) for demanding applications involving: Extreme Temperatures (below -30°C or above +200°C) Aggressive Chemicals that elastomers can't handle Very Low Leakage or "Zero Leakage" requirements Poor Lubricity or dry running conditions The internal spring maintains constant sealing force, compensating for wear and system variables.
What does "AS568" mean?
AS568 is the Aerospace Standard that defines the dimensions for over 360 standard O-ring sizes. It is the most widely accepted sizing system in North America and globally. An AS568 number (e.g., AS568-214) specifies a precise inside diameter and cross-section.
Can I reuse a seal?
We strongly recommend never reusing seals. Once compressed and used, a seal takes a "set" and its elastic properties are degraded. Reusing it almost always results in a leak. Always install a new seal during any maintenance or repair.
How important is surface finish on the metal parts that contact the seal?
Extremely important. A rough surface will abrade and wear out the seal quickly, causing leaks. A finish that is too smooth can prevent a lubricating film from forming. A typical recommended surface finish for dynamic applications is 0.2 to 0.8 μm (8-32 μin) Ra.
