DAMPER SEALS (PNEUMATICS)
Damper seals feature face spacing elements and overflow channels on the outer perimeter. Secure pneumatic damping
and fast movement out of the end position are achieved thanks to the integrated check valve function and automatic
centering.
Damper seal D&S 300

Patented combined damping element for the cylinder cover that performs
multiple functions at the same time: Static sealing between the cylinder cover
and cylinder barrel, pneumatic damping through air throttling, mechanical
damping at the end of the piston stroke, and integrated check valve function. This
leads to a significantly lower number of components and greatly simplified
machining of the cylinder cover. It also prevents noise emissions and dynamic
loads for cylinder components and neighboring units.

Micro O-rings are available with very small internal diameters (d1 > 0.75 mm) and
cord thicknesses (d3 > 0.4 mm). They offer tight tolerances (ISO 3601 Part 1 for cord
thicknesses not sufficient), material resistance (aging, UV, and media resistance),
and a reduced, even burr. Micro O-rings are available in the materials FKM, NBR,
HNBR, and EPDM.

DIAPHRAGMS
Long-stroke diaphragm BFA

Long-stroke diaphragms are thin-walled, sensitive special diaphragms made from
rubber-elastic materials with fabric reinforcement. A low pressure difference of
approximately 0.15 bar must be present during the piston return movement, as
creases or kinks can otherwise form in the rolling convolution.

BOOTS AND BELLOWS

Sealing Boots

Sealing Boots offer protection from environmental influences and prevent
lubricants from escaping. They are produced as single-convolution or double-
convolution dust covers and are available with vulcanized or fitted clamping
elements made of metal or plastic on one of the two connection areas. Reinforced
dust covers offer a whole host of advantages: Improved sealing functionality, no
risk of corrosion or damage to the bellows as a result of cutting by clip rings or
clamping rings. In contrast to a non-reinforced dust cover, no additional installation
steps or purchased parts are required.

Packing pullers
A clean installation area is important for securing the sealing characteristics of

seal area. Packing pullers have been developed specifically for removing worn
seals both quickly and gently. The forged, helical tip is force fitted to the puller
shaft. With its high pitch, it drills effortlessly into all types of braided and fabric
packings. Packing pullers are supplied in sets in a practical container. Each set

Packing cutting gage

The universal packing cutting gage was developed for practical cutting of pack-
ings off a reel. Packing is cut with precise dimensions on this gage in line with the
respective application. There is a slider with scales in mm and inches on the gage's
plastic ruler. The scale on this ruler is aligned with the shaft or spindle diameter,
whereby the packing cross-section is set via the scale on the slider. The slider stop

BUTTERFLY VALVE SEALS

Seals in disk valves in processing plants. The elastomer form ring is pressed radially
in the valve during the closing process and thereby seals off both high-viscosity
and low-viscosity media. Low friction and a low compression set of the butterfly
valve seal, as well as high temperature and media resistance, explicitly also in
cleaning media (CIP – cleaning in place / SIP – sterilization in place), are critical for
ensuring perfect functioning..

ISOLATING ELEMENTS
Various elastomer-metal design elements can be used to reduce vibrations and
