Orange JCB High Pressure Piston Seals Double Oil Seal For Seal Kit

Rod Seals, also known as Gland Seals, Headbush or Neck Seals are an integral part of any hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder system. Essentially, they are designed to seal between a cylinder’s rod and gland.

The Rod Seal acts as a pressure barrier to maintain and regulate the operating fluid when a cylinder is in dynamic motion, and so plays a key role in preventing leakage and corrosion.

They do this by sealing the pressure from one side (single-acting) or from both sides (double-acting) and work together with a Wiper Seal to protect the system from external contaminants.

For more heavy duty applications, a Buffer Seal can be used alongside a Rod Seal to provide even further resilience.

Rod Seals come in a variety of sizes, styles and materials, to meet the parameters of the cylinder’s application and operating conditions.

High pressure, extreme temperatures, fluid compatibility, working environment and legislation standards will all have an impact on the chosen material of seal.
