Hey dan why are those the best and were can I get them see I posted the another kind.

 

[Tuna_Sammich]

x-rings (or quad rings) are much better than a standard o-ring due to the dual sealing surfaces and the resistance to rolling on itself..

the next better choice would be a u-cup..

but the best choice is a polypak, which is just a u-cup preloaded with an oring..

the o-ring keeps the sealing lip of the polypak pressed tight up against wall of the cylinder, whereas, to some extent, the u-cup relies on pressure to create a seal..

and you can see that the polypak has a sealing surface that is square to the applied force, and an oring has a beveled edge exposed. so the oring has a better chance of being "pushed" back inside of the piston and letting fluid pass by..

polypaks also have a higher pressure handling capability than an oring..



not bad for a bag guy, huh?

So were can I get them. :cheesy:

anyplace that sells industrial hydraulics and seals..

they'll need to know the bore diameter, piston goove height and depth..
