Technical Specifications
The Evergreen 5540322 is a single-lip U-cup seal designed for dynamic sealing in hydraulic and pneumatic systems. U-cup seals like this model feature a characteristic U-shaped profile that provides both inside and outside sealing surfaces, making them suitable for rod and piston applications. The seal material is engineered to maintain flexibility under pressure while resisting extrusion and wear. Standard U-cup seals operate effectively at pressures up to 400 bar (approximately 5,800 psi) in typical industrial applications, though specific pressure ratings may vary by material composition and configuration.
Typical Applications
- Packaging machinery and automation systems
- Hydraulic cylinder rod and piston sealing
- Pneumatic equipment requiring dynamic sealing
- Industrial equipment with linear motion components
- Food processing and beverage packaging systems
