This type of oil seal is mainly suitable for pressure parts, and belongs to pressure type rotary seals. The lip area of the TCV oil seal is a pressured area, which is reduced due to the improved internal structure of the oil seal, while maintaining a certain strength. It is mainly used for small shaft diameter and medium pressure (up to 0.3MPa).
One of the arguments often used against hydraulic systems isthat dreaded word, leakage. But with proper sealing, leakage wontbe a problem with your system. Sealing is a vital factor in the properfunction of hydraulic applications. Leakage from the cylinder oracross the piston, along with the ingress of unwanted contaminants,can not only decrease the lifespan of the components, but it willaffect the efficiency of the entire application.
Proper material choices will be determined by the seals environment. Different types of chemicals react differently to different fluids, while some materials have higher pressure and temperature limits. They also must be able to withstand extrusion, so materials are very application-specific.
Polyurethane is an organic material whose chemical composition is characterized by a large number of urethane groups. Urethanes belong to the thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) family and close the gap between thermoplastic and elastomeric materials regarding hardness, deforming behavior and consistency. Within certain temperature limits, polyurethane possesses the elastic characteristics of rubber combined with the advantages of a rigid plastic.
The composition of the material is determined by three components: polyol, diisocyanate and a chain extender. The type and amount of these materials used, and the reaction conditions, are decisive in determining the properties of the resulting polyurethane material. In general, polyurethanes possess the following properties:
high mechanical, tensile strength
good abrasion resistance
modulus of elasticity is variable
wide range of hardness values, while retaining good elasticity
good resistance to ozone and oxygen
outstanding resistance to abrasion and tear
Temperature range for use: 30 to 80° C; high performance types (compounds) up to 110° C in mineral oils (long-term exposure temperature).

NBR is a polymer of butadiene and acrylonitrile. The acrylonitrile (ACN) component affects the following properties of the NBR:
elasticity
cold flexibility
gas permeability
compression set
swelling resistance in mineral oils, greases and fuels
An NBR material with low ACN content has very good cold flexibility (down to approximately 45° C) and moderate resistance to oil and fuel. In contrast, a material with very high ACN content with optimum resistance to oil and fuels, may have a cold temperature flexibility only down to 3° C. With rising ACN content, the elasticity and the gas permeability decrease and the compression set becomes worse.
NBR provides:
good resistance to swelling in aliphatic hydrocarbons; greases; fire retardant hydraulic fluids of Groups HFA, HFB and HFC
good resistance to hot water at temperatures up to 100° C (sanitary fittings), inorganic acids and bases at concentrations, and temperatures which are not too high
high swell in aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, flame retardant hydraulic fluids of the Group HFD, esters
Temperature range for use (depending on the composition of the blend): 40 to 100° C and for short periods up to 130° C (the material hardens at higher temperatures). For special blends, the cold flexibility extends down to 55° C.
Copolymers, terpolymers or tetrapolymers with various compositions and with fluorine contents from 65 to 71%, which have varying resistance to surrounding media and varying cold flexibility. FKM provides:
tough resistance to high heat
excellent resistance to oil, hydraulic fluid and hydrocarbon solvents
good flame retardance
low permeability to gases
high swell in polar solvents, ketones and fire-retardant hydraulic fluids (i.e. Skydrol type)
Newly developed materials (cross-lined by peroxides) have good resistance to media, which can only be tolerated to a small extent, if at all, by conventional FKM.
Temperature range for use: about 20 to 200° C (for short periods to 230° C). Special grades: 50° to 200° C.
PTFE is a polymer of tetrafluoroethylene. This non-elastic material is characterized by:
slippery surface that repels most media n
on-toxic at working temperatures up to 200° C
Further reading:Dingtong contains other products and information you need, so please check it out.
low coefficient of friction against most opposing surfaces made of other materials; stiction and friction are almost the same
excellent electrical insulating properties (almost independent of frequency, temperature and weathering effects)
chemical resistance that exceeds that of all other thermoplastics and elastomers
liquid alkali metals and a few fluorine compounds attack PTFE at higher temperatures
The temperature tolerance is between 200° and 260° C; PTFE has some elasticity even at extremely low temperatures; therefore it is used in many extreme cold temperature applications. Most hydraulic applications require the use of a spring or elastomeric component to energize a lip seal configuration because of the low elasticity and tendency to cold flow over time.

Following is a list of some of the most common seal designs used in fluid power applications.
provide sealing of the piston and barrel, critical to the function of the cylinder
most often a lip-seal design, but can also be O-rings, T-seals, and so on
must provide efficient sealing, but also reasonably low friction
made from various seal materials, depending on application
require system pressure to effectively activate the lip seal
provide aggressive wiping force
prevent mud, water, dirt and other contamination rom entering the system
allow lubricating oil film to return to system on inward stroke
protect main sealing elements, thus increasing life of seals
often made from polyurethane, which offers high abrasion resistance
often used as a linkage pin grease seal
prevent system fluid from escaping to atmosphere
must provide sealing function at low and high pressure
require excellent extrusion and wear resistance
should provide good pump-back capability for lubricating oil film
often must withstand up to 6,000 psi

must withstand high pressure exposure
protect the rod seal against pressure spikes
feature a pressure-relieving capability that prevents pressure build-up between seals
increase rod seal life
allow for wider extrusion gaps
require high wear resistance
prevent contact between metal parts in the cylinder
center rod and piston from housing elements
increase seal life
most commonly used in static applications and radial or axial deformation to maintain sealing contact force
double-acting, so seal on both sides of a component
can be used as energizing elects or as primary seals
self-acting, so do not require additional system pressure or speed to create the seal
