    Five V-Rings

    Stacked

    Profile

    These leather V-ring packing seals handle over twice the pressure as PTFE. Leather is tough, pliable, and wear resistant, so it flexes to fit uneven surfaces and fill voids. Stack as many V-rings as you need to fill grooves in valves, pumps, and cylinders—each additional ring adds to the sealing force.
    Note: Maximum performance values cannot be achieved simultaneously; for example, speed is affected by pressure, temperature, and other operating conditions.

    Rod Installation

    Piston Installation

    Rated for pressure up to 10,000 psi, these leather U-cups handle over 80 times more pressure than our Buna-N U-cups. Leather is tough, pliable, and wear resistant, so it flexes to fit uneven surfaces and fill voids. U-cups can be used for rod and piston sealing. Pistons require two seals—install one facing in each direction.
    Note: Maximum performance values cannot be achieved simultaneously; for example, speed is affected by pressure, temperature, and other operating conditions.
