Rod Seal U-Cup – Asymmetrical
The 101 Series Rod U-Cup seal is one of System Seals’ most popular designs used in standard-duty applications.
Installation
Benefits
High pressure capability and wide temperature range
Excellent fluid compatibility including water-based fluids (H-PU)
Exceptional abrasion resistance
Highly extrusion resistant
Available in diameters up to 2100mm
Applications
The 101 Series U-Cup is one of the most versatile seals typically used as a primary seal in moderate to high-pressure applications. In applications requiring Zero-Leak Technology, it is often used as a secondary seal with the 124 Series buffer seal.
Typical applications include:
- Mobile Hydraulics
- Hydraulic Cylinder Rebuild
- Agricultural Hydraulics
- Construction Equipment
- Hydraulic Presses
- Injection Molding Machines
The 101 Series rod seal features high-grade polyurethane. Standard materials are MP03 machined H-PU, available up to 2100mm 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.
