Description

The shock absorber seals play a leading role in the lifespan and reliability of shock absorber operations. France Joint offers custom-made designs that mainly reduce friction and prevent the entry of dirt into the system.

Advantages

• Thick metal cage supporting the different automatic assembly processes for heavy-duty applications
• Primary sealing lip profile with integrated spring, designed for significant linear motion while limiting friction loads
• Optional gas lip positioned on the end of the primary sealing lip or at the seal body and acting as a check valve
• Additional anti-pollution sealing lip with or without an integrated spring to prevent external contamination
• Rubber bead on the outside of the seal for optimal static sealing
