GES is a two piece single acting pistonseal which consists of one special mixture PTFE profile ring (stepseal) and an o-ring as energizing element.

 PRODUCT ADVANTAGES

• ​Low friction , free of stick-slip
• Long service life
• High sliding speed
• Wide range of temperature and chemicals depending on the o-ring material
•  Minimum static and dynamic friction coefficient for a minimum energy loss and operating temperature
• Simple groove design and low axial housing heights

APPLICATION
Injection moulding machines , fork-lift trucks , loading platforms , cranes , agricultural machinery , hydraulic breakers and servo cylinders.

INSTALLATION
We recommend using special assembly tool (See section; Hydraulic Sealing Elements General Installation Information). It is very important that the assembly tools must be of soft material and have no sharp edges. Before installation the sealing element must be oiled with system oil.

NOTES: For special applications that require high temperatures or resistance to chemicals , piston seal is being manufactured with special mixture PTFE and FPM material. For heavy duty applications and high pressures the tolerances should change to H8/f8 and please contact the customer service to choose the suitable sealing element. The permissible sealing gap values of GES piston seal is given in the below table.

Note: The largest sealing gap value occurring on the non-pressurized side of the seal does have a vital importance for the function of the seal and in this respect it is quite important to use the S value lower than the above indicated numbers. 

 Note: The above data are maximum values and cannot be used at the same time.

Note: It is recommended to have 50% to 90% of the working surface material contact area value.
