4. Metallic Seals For extreme temperature applications, metallic seals combined with elastomeric components can provide a robust sealing solution. They offer durability and can operate at temperatures exceeding 600°C (1112°F).

inner hub seal. Some seals are made of rubber or plastic, while others are made of more durable materials such as metal or synthetic rubber. The choice of seal will depend on factors such as the type of machinery, the operating conditions, and the level of sealing required.
The materials used in manufacturing hydraulic seals are also vital to their performance. Common materials include rubber compounds, polyurethane, and PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene). Each material offers different advantages and is selected based on the operating environment. For example, PTFE seals are highly resistant to chemicals and extreme temperatures, making them ideal for demanding applications.
