Polypac Bidirectional Piston Seal Overview

Polypac Bidirectional Piston Seals are designed to provide dependable sealing for hydraulic cylinders that operate in both directions. Combining advanced PTFE compounds and high-quality elastomers, these seals deliver low friction, long service life, and stable performance under varying pressure and temperature conditions.

Key Features

  • Bidirectional sealing for push and pull strokes
  • Low friction to reduce wear and improve efficiency
  • Wide material choices: filled PTFE, NBR, FKM, EPDM, silicone, FFKM
  • Custom sizes and profiles to match specific cylinders
  • High resistance to extrusion, aging, and common hydraulic fluids

Materials & Construction

We use a range of engineered materials based on your application: bronze-, carbon-, graphite-, MoS₂-, and glass-filled PTFE for sliding faces, and durable elastomers for energizers. This combination ensures excellent sealing performance with minimal stick-slip and low leakage.

Applications

Ideal for hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders in construction equipment, agricultural machinery, industrial presses, and mobile hydraulics. Suitable for harsh environments where directional reversals and frequent cycles occur.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.
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.
How do I choose the right material for my sealing application?
Material selection depends on four key factors: Media: What fluid or gas will the seal contact? (e.g., petroleum oil, water, chemicals, steam) Temperature: What is the minimum and maximum operating temperature? Pressure: What is the system's operating pressure? Are there pressure spikes? Application: Is it a static, dynamic, or rotary seal? Example: NBR (Buna-N) is excellent for standard hydraulic oil, while FKM (Viton®) is needed for high temperatures or aggressive chemicals.
