Rod Buffer SealsRod Buffer Seals Design

Rod Buffer Seals are engineered to provide a secure seal for the sliding motion between a cylinder head and piston rod, withstanding changes in pressure during operation while maintaining the seal. They also provide a thin lubrication film on the piston rod that protects against corrosion while keeping the rod and wipers lubricated.

Our product line includes:

  • DYR style – U-cup shaped urethane rod buffer seal that can withstand pressure up to 8,000 psi, temperatures from -40°F to 230°F, and speeds of 3 ft./second. Available in standard sizes.
  • KR and MKR styles – PTFE rod buffer seal with an external rubber energizer that can withstand pressure up to 5,000 psi, temperatures from -40°F to 220°F, and speeds of 12 ft./second. KR is available in standard sizes and MKR is available in metric sizes.
