For the RSP rod seal slight changes have been made compared to the traditional rod seals profiles.
This has been done in order to obtain the following advantages:
better sliding, better performance also at low pressures. A rounded dynamic lip improves linear movements.
Deeper U-profile between the dynamic and the static lip improves flexibility and better performs in case of misalignments of the system.
