The R16 is a single-acting, o-ring energized, low-friction rod seal proven to be ideal in a variety of applications. The seal is made with our high-quality Armorlene products combined with an elastomer energizer for superior performance. High performance Armorlene materials, like HLX, provide outstanding wear and extrusion resistance properties as well as large range of temperature and media compatibility. Unlike other designs, the R16 can be used in tandem installations to provide optimum sealing in high-speed applications. The R16 is also commonly used as a pressure buffer seal protecting the primary rod seal from high-frequency pressure spikes that might be found in a system.
