4. Gaskets Gaskets are essential for sealing joints between different components of the hydraulic system. They prevent fluid leaks and maintain system integrity.

Understanding Hydraulic Cylinder Repair Seal Kits
- Manufacturing Machinery used in factories, particularly those dealing with raw materials like wood, metal, or plastic, often incorporates dust proof seals to enhance durability.
Leather is probably the oldest of the lip materials still in common use, but the move towards mass production methods has seen a massive increase in the development of synthetic rubbers which lend themselves to accurate and repeatable injection and compression moulding. Nitrile (NBR) is still by far the most common elastomer for “normal” use, whilst Viton® (FKM/FPM) is rapidly replacing Polyacrylate (ACM) and Silicone (VMQ) for high-temperature applications. Viton® also has high resistance to abrasion and chemical attack making it a preferred elastomer. Recent developments in the use of PTFE for Rotary shaft seals has caused widespread interest particularly for high-speed shaft rotation or poor lubrication applications.
