A compact rod / gland seal providing smooth operation and low levels of breakout and dynamic friction.
Lionsele G is a compact rod / gland seal provides optimum sealing performance combined with smooth operation and low levels of breakout and dynamic friction.
In operation, the rectangular energiser helps to keep leakage to a minimum by evenly supporting the PTFE sleeve, preventing it from twisting or rocking in the housing. Stable fluid film conditions and consistent low friction values are therefore ensured.
In addition, the profile of the PTFE sleeve is designed to control leakage by ensuring that the maximum possible amount of residual fluid film is recovered from the piston rod on the return stroke.
Due to the self-lubricating properties of the seal's running face, and its single acting profile, two seals may be fitted in tandem to provide optimum leakage control without the risk of inter-seal pressure trapping.
Systems where instant response and low power consumption are important, and leakage is unacceptable. Examples include:
Energiser
PTFE sleeve
