PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) wiper seals are essential components in hydraulic and pneumatic systems, designed to prevent contaminants from entering and damaging the system while maintaining optimal performance.
Key features:
Low friction: The inherent low friction properties of PTFE reduce wear on sealing and mating surfaces Chemical resistance: suitable for all kinds of industrial acid and alkali environment. Temperature range: It can operate in a wide temperature range from -200°C to +260°C Self-lubricating :PTFE’s self-lubricating properties minimize the need for additional lubrication Non-stick surface: prevents the accumulation of debris and contaminants
Applications
PTFE wiper seals are utilized in a variety of industries due to their versatile properties:
Hydraulic Systems: Prevents contamination and enhances the performance and lifespan of hydraulic cylinders and pumps.
Pneumatic Systems: Ensures clean and efficient operation of pneumatic cylinders and actuators.
Automotive Industry: Used in shock absorbers, power steering systems, and other critical components to improve reliability and performance.
Industrial Machinery: Protects machinery from contaminants in harsh environments, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
Aerospace: Ensures reliable operation of hydraulic and pneumatic systems in aircraft, where performance and safety are paramount.
