SLIPPER COMPOSITE SEALS ASSEMBLING INSTRUCTIONS

 

ASSEMBLY ON PISTON IN CLOSED GROOVE AND IN OPEN GROOVE

 

slipper composite seals assembling Assembly in closed groove can be carried out manually, however the use of the appropriate equipment guarantees the integrity of the slipper and time-saving insertion.

Assembly in open groove is suggested for slippers exceeding the dimensions shown in dimensional table.

Correctly carried out introduction blunting and the lubrication of the surfaces make assembly easier.

For an easier assembling in closed groove the preheating of the Slipper in oil or water bath at 90-100°C is suggested.

INSERTION AND RECALIBRATION EQUIPMENT FOR INSTALLATION IN CLOSED GROOVES ON THE PISTON

 

slipper composite seals assembling The expander cone brings the Slipper to the diameter of the piston, or to the edge of the groove when other existing grooves must be passed over.

The thruster expands sector by sector, or more simply, in single logitudinal cutting.

Both the cone and thruster can be made in acetal resin (POM), polyester (PBTF) or polyamide (PA6)

The prolonged extended permanence of the Slipper during installation could determine a permanent increase in diameter; therefore fast installation is advised.
Recalibration of the slipper may be opportune using a sleeve before insertion of the piston in the cylinder.

The sleeve also allows the passing over of grooves and threads.

INSTALLATION ON THE CYLYNDER IN CLOSED GROOVE

The Slipper seal can be introduced in the closed groove imposing a reniform deformation.


The radius R should never be little then 3 times S

Open groove installation is advised for rods exceeding  the diameter shown in dimensional table.

The mono-directional R type Slipper is
installed using this method of positioning
the seal-front towards the pressure.
