Resilon D-Ring Seals
Parker has combined its proprietary polyurethane technology with a new seal design to improve the sealing performance and assembly of hydraulic valves. Parker’s Resilon® 4300 polyurethane “D”-rings are a one-piece, hydraulic valve sealing solution which delivers longer life over traditional multi-component seals.
Assembly is easy! The unique “D”- ring shape provides sealing in critical areas while reducing the chance of a seal being cut during installation. This unique seal design, when combined with Parker’s proprietary high performance Resilon polyurethane extends seal life and reduces warranty costs.
Product Highlights:
Proprietary wear resistant and compression set resistant Resilon 4300 polyurethane provides long life
Available in Resilon 4301 polyurethane for compatibility with water and oil-based fluids
Pressure capable to 10,000 psi • Easy installation
The unique shape of the Parker “D”-ring also provides a variety of design advantages. The molded “D” shape which is higher in the middle and lower on the ends, provides sealing in critical areas while reducing the chance of a seal being cut during installation. Its sealing lip is minimized, thus reducing the amount of friction between seal and bore while providing expected sealing performance. The “D” shape is symmetrical so there is no performance degradation as the valve cycles in the reverse direction nor concern of backward installation of the seal. The design also incorporates “pressure pedestals” to eliminate the potential for “blow-by,” common in reverse cycling.
Resilon® Polyurethane Material
Resilon polyurethane was developed by Parker’s scientists and engineers to provide improved wear- and compression set-resistance in demanding applications and is considered one of the best hydraulic sealing materials available. The increased strength and resilience of Resilon 4300 polyurethane eliminates the need for back-up rings. Resilon 4300 is rated to perform in hydraulic fluids at service temperatures from -65 to +275°F.
When using high water content fluids at elevated temperatures, Parker recommends water- resistant Resilon 4301 polyurethane. Resilon 4301 polyurethane’s unique formulation
“D”-Ring Seal is a Problem Solver
Resilon® 4300 Polyurethane “D”-ring (DG Profile)
Parker’s Resilon 4300 polyurethane D-rings are a one-piece, sealing solution which delivers longer life and reduced warranty costs over traditional multiple-component seals. The increased strength and resilience of Resilon 4300 polyurethane eliminates the need for back-up rings and the challenges associated with the rings folding over on a corner inside the manifold during assembly.
