Characteristics and performance
This twin lip, asymmetric, single-acting piston seal with precision trimmed sealing lips provides a dry sealing solution in light and medium-duty application. The sealing lips are trimmed at an angle to give optimal rod sealing performance.
Designed to have an interference on the piston spigot diameter and has a secondary lip, the secondary sealing lip located behind the primary sealing lip improves stability of the seal in the piston. The outer dynamic lip is shorter and more robust to improving sealing and compression set characteristics over conventional, symmetrical U-rings.
The Hallite 659 is moulded in Hythane® 181, Hallite’s high-performance polyurethane, for easy installation and excellent low temperature performance. Depending on tube bore finish, the Hallite 659 is also offered in Hythane® 361 polyurethane.
