Series 117: Double-Lipped Rod U-Cup Seal

The 117 Series U-cup seal is a high-performance, double-lipped seal for use as a primary seal, typically in moderate to high-pressure applications. Its asymmetrical design ensures that the seal lip forces are optimized for every cross section and diameter. When used within a sealing system, the 117 plays a key component of System Seals’ Zero Leak Technology. Manufactured in a variety of materials and sizes from 6 mm up to 2100 mm in standard or custom diameters.

Applications

The 117 Series U-cup seal is typically used as a primary seal in moderate to high-pressure applications. In applications using a sealing system, it is often used as a secondary seal with the 124 Series buffer seal.

Typical applications include:

  • Mining
  • Agricultural Hydraulics
  • Construction Equipment
  • Presses
  • Injection Molding Machines

The 117 Series rod seal features high-grade polyurethane. Standard materials are MP03 machined H-PU, available up to 2100 mm in diameter, and MP50 injection-molded TPU. To suit a variety of applications the series is also available in NBR, H-NBR, EPDM and high temperature-resistant FPM.
