About Cylinder Seals
Rod wipers scrape dirt, dust, and moisture from the rod, preventing contamination inside your cylinder.
Rod seals maintain the pressure inside cylinders and prevent fluid from leaking out.
Wear rings guide the rod and piston to prevent uneven wear and optimize seal performance.
Head seals are a more reliable alternative to the standard O-ring/backup ring combination—they resist twisting and remain stable even in applications with fluctuating pressure.
Buffering seals protect hydraulic cylinders from pressure spikes and shock in high-pressure hydraulic applications.
Cushioning seals minimize wear and noise in air-powered cylinders by preventing the piston from slamming against the cylinder body.
Piston seals make a seal between their outside edge and the cylinder bore to prevent internal leaks.
Flared-End Piston Ring Compressors
The flared end prevents this compressor from following the piston into the cylinder. Use it to ensure smooth insertion of your piston into a cylinder.
| For Ring OD | Overall Ht. | Each | |
| 1 3/4"-3 1/2" | 2" | 0000000 | 000000 |
Quick-Release Piston Ring Compressors
Push the lever and this compressor instantly releases for easy removal. Use it to ensure smooth insertion of your piston into a cylinder.
| For Ring OD | Overall Ht. | Each | |
| 2 1/8"-5" | 1 1/2" | 000000 | 000000 |
Low-Friction Piston Ring Compressors
Also known as a wrinkle-band compressor, this tool has fewer points of contact than other compressors for less friction. Use it to ensure smooth insertion of your piston into a cylinder. This compressor has a cam lock that holds the size once you set it.
