The C1 rod seal is a U-ring with interference fit on the outer diameter. Excellent sealing performance is achieved with minimal profile width and height. Extremely low friction due to short seal contact area. Use in pneumatic equipment is only possible with constant lubricant supply, e.g. oiled air. For non-oiled (dry air) pneumatic systems, we recommend our E5 product series.

• Good wear resistance.
• Easy installation.
• High temperature resistance in case of suitable compound selection.
• Excellent media resistance in case of suitable compound selection.
• Suitable compounds available for special requirements of the chemical process industry.
• Suitable compounds available for special requirements of the food processing industry.
• Installation in closed and undercut housings.

Range of application:
The C1 rod seal is particularly suitable for plungers, piston rods, stems and valve lifters as well as for slowly operating pneumatic rotors (v ≤ 0.2 m/s).
