Product Overview
The SPGW seal is a double-acting piston seal specifically engineered for heavy-duty hydraulic applications. It features a PTFE sealing ring with an NBR rubber O-ring that acts as an energizer, providing constant sealing force even under low pressure conditions . This design allows the seal to perform excellently in high-pressure working conditions, withstanding up to 50 MPa while maintaining low friction and long service life

Product Features
1. Double-Acting Design
The SPGW seal provides bidirectional sealing, making it suitable for double-acting hydraulic cylinders where pressure alternates on both sides of the piston .
2. High Pressure Capability
With a maximum working pressure of 50 MPa, the SPGW seal offers excellent extrusion resistance and maintains stable performance under shock loads and pressure peaks .
3. Low Friction Operation
The PTFE sealing ring has a very low coefficient of friction, reducing wear and preventing stick-slip (crawling) phenomenon during operation .
4. Excellent Sealing Performance
The combination of PTFE sealing ring and NBR energizer provides outstanding sealing performance in both dynamic and static conditions .
5. Large Extrusion Gap Tolerance
The seal allows for larger piston-to-cylinder gaps, which reduces machining costs and makes it suitable for applications with contamination present .
6. Simple Groove Design
The SPGW seal features a simple groove structure that is easy to machine and is suitable for one-piece (integral) pistons .
7. Long Service Life
The PTFE material offers excellent wear resistance, resulting in extended seal life even in demanding applications .
8. Wide Temperature Range
Operating from -35°C to +105°C, the SPGW seal performs reliably in various climate conditions .
