Type MRA/MRI

Composite seals Type MRA/MRI are particularly well suited for sealing pistons and rods in hydraulic and pneumatic working cylinders.

They consist of two components:

  • a profile ring made of the high-strength fluoro-plastic, PTFE, or alternatively from an ultra-high-molecular PE for dynamic sealing of the sliding surface (primary seal)
  • an O-ring for static sealing in the groove area (secondary seal)

Groove Dimensions
Depending on installation conditions, other profiles – differing from the standard dimensions provided – may be selected for composite seal type MRA (externally sealing) and type MRI (internally sealing). The respective groove dimensions are listed in the table below.
