Single-Acting Seal Solutions by Polypac

Single-Acting Seal Solutions by Polypac

Overview

Polypac's Single-Acting Seal range addresses the core needs of hydraulic and rotary systems where sealing is required in one direction of movement. Designed for robust sealing under unidirectional pressure, our Single-Acting Seal products deliver consistent performance in cylinders, pumps, and actuators. Leveraging over a decade of material science and manufacturing expertise, Polypac integrates advanced polymers and elastomers to meet diverse operating conditions.

Materials & Performance

Our Single-Acting Seal portfolio includes filled PTFE variants (bronze, carbon, graphite, MoS₂, glass) and elastomers such as NBR, FKM, EPDM, silicone, and high-performance FFKM. These material options allow you to balance friction, wear resistance, chemical compatibility, and temperature stability. Polypac optimizes compound selection to minimize leakage, extend service life, and reduce maintenance intervals for your equipment.

Applications & Benefits

Single-Acting Seal solutions from Polypac are ideal for hydraulic cylinders, pneumatic pistons, rod seals, and low-speed rotary devices. Key benefits include simplified installation, reliable unidirectional sealing, reduced frictional losses, and enhanced equipment uptime. Whether your system faces high pressure, abrasive media, or extreme temperatures, our seals are engineered to perform.

Custom Manufacturing & Engineering

With a custom rubber ring and O-ring factory spanning over 10,000 m² and industry-leading production and testing equipment, Polypac offers tailored Single-Acting Seal designs to suit special working conditions. We collaborate with universities and research institutes to develop bespoke solutions—rapid prototyping, material formulation, and size customization ensure exact fit and performance.

Quality Assurance & Support

Founded in 2008, Polypac maintains rigorous QC protocols and comprehensive testing to validate durability and leakage resistance. Our technical team provides application support, installation guidance, and lifecycle recommendations to maximize ROI. Choose Polypac for proven Single-Acting Seal expertise, consistent quality, and global supply capabilities.

FAQ:
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.

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.

What is the purpose of the metal spring in a rotary shaft seal?

The garter spring in a shaft seal (e.g., FSKR, SPGO types) provides a constant radial force on the sealing lip. This ensures consistent contact with the rotating shaft, compensating for minor wear, eccentricity, and vibration to prevent lubricant leakage.

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.
