Metal-Cased Hydraulic Wiper Seals

A metal-cased hydraulic wiper seal is a rigid press-fit scraper with an elastomer or polymer wiping element. The case anchors the seal in an open housing bore, while the working edge removes packed dirt, moisture and debris from a rod entering demanding mobile or industrial cylinders.

Questions about metal-cased hydraulic wiper seals

What should I send to identify metal-cased hydraulic wiper seals?

Send rod diameter, press-fit bore diameter, housing depth, case material, contamination conditions. State whether the old part has an exposed metal outside diameter and whether its bore is an open press-fit seat. A clear photograph, drawing or readable reference can resolve details that dimensions alone do not show.

How should I select metal-cased hydraulic wiper seals?

Match case interference and corrosion resistance to the housing, then choose the wiping edge for mud, scale, ice or general dust. Confirm the mating parts and operating environment before ordering, since an apparently similar size can use a different profile, material or internal arrangement.
