T-Seal

Product Overview

Typically used in reciprocating and high pressure static applications, T-Seals comprise a single T-section elastomeric energiser and two thermoplastic back-up rings.

Available in both piston and rod geometries, T-Seals can retro-fit into most standard O-ring grooves designed for widths to accommodate 0, 1 or 2 back-ups.

The shape prevents spiral failure whilst reciprocating. The elastomer component transmits the system pressure under the low pressure back-up ring, forcing it into position, closing the extrusion gap.

As an elastomeric contact seal, the T-Seal provides highly efficient sealing and can be used in applications where two fluid types need to be separated e.g. gas, oil separation by an accumulator piston seal.
