The KDAE compact piston seal series type is designed with a central polyurethane element and
two side anti-extrusion rings. The assembling between the polyurethane element with high elastic modulus and the two elastomer rings with high hardness enhances stability of the sealing even at heavy duty applications.
Compared to rubber, the abrasion is also reduced due to the use of polyurethane, therefore extending
the life of the seal.
The friction (first operation and in working condition) is also considerably reduced, due to geometric
shape of the seal, having better performance than NBR.
The materials used for the construction of this type of seal are:
- polyurethane for the central element, hardness 93 Shore A (C0)
- the backup rings in TPE elastomer 63 Shore D (L2).
Compound reference: CR
This seal can be assembled both in closed groove on a mono-block piston and in open groove on a two-part piston.
Avoid machining scores on the piston which May damage the sealing during the installation
The use of grease in the piston is recommended for easier assembling.
