- High static and dynamic sealing effect
- Eliminates the build-up of disruptive intermediate pressures between seals
- High extrusion resistance, to suit wide hardware clearances
- High-frequency operation
- Low friction, increasing performance and working life
- Stick-slip-free starting, no sticking even after extended periods of rest
- High abrasion resistance, maximum operational reliability
- Compatible with virtually all media
- Suited to mineral oil-based hydraulic fluids, flame retardant hydraulic fluids, environmentally-safe hydraulic fluids (bio-oils), water and other media
- Simple installation without seal edge deformation
- Unidirectional seal
Turcon® Stepseal® 2K enhances sealing efficiency with better extrusion resistance giving superior leakage control and allowing larger hardware tolerances, making cylinder production more economic. It is also more uniform, showing low-friction characteristics throughout an extended life and even during the run-in period when friction forces can have the greatest effect on hydraulic seals.
Turcon® Stepseal® 2K can be matched to specific mating surfaces and media. Seals can be specified to meet the precise degree of extrusion and abrasion tolerance required for an application.
Typical Oil & Gas Applications Include:
- Risers and compensators
- Offshore topside hydraulics
- Tensioner cylinders
