Engineered for demanding hydraulic rod applications, this asymmetric twin lip U-seal delivers superior sealing performance where standard seals fall short. The dual-lip geometry creates a primary sealing lip that wipes the rod clean on the return stroke while the secondary lip retains system pressure — giving you a cleaner, longer-lasting seal in high-cycle environments.
Key Features
Asymmetric twin lip design — independent primary and secondary lips for optimized pressure retention and rod wiping
Urethane construction — exceptional abrasion resistance, high tensile strength, and broad chemical compatibility
Rod seal geometry — precision-molded to maintain consistent contact pressure across the rod surface
Low friction profile — minimizes stick-slip and reduces rod wear for extended service life
Wide operating range — suitable for mineral oils, water-glycol fluids, and most hydraulic media
Typical Applications
Hydraulic cylinders (mobile and industrial)
