| Mounting Type | Threaded, flange, or cartridge | |
| Pressure Rating | Up to 300 bar | |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to 200°C | |
| Rod Diameter Range | 5-100 mm | |
| Standards Compliance | ISO 6194, DIN 3760 |
Ranges are indicative industry figures for RFQ preparation, not a supplier commitment. Confirm every value and standard with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
This component is used in the following industrial products
Enclosure that contains and protects the pressure spring mechanism within a pneumatic actuator.

Explore company information and manufacturing capabilities, then discuss the scope of your project with a relevant supplier.
To prevent fluid leakage and exclude contaminants around moving rods in pressurized systems, ensuring operational integrity and safety.
Regularly inspect for leaks, adjust gland nut compression to minimize wear, and replace seals based on service intervals or signs of degradation like hardening or cracking.
Yes, with appropriate materials like PTFE or graphite seals, which withstand temperatures up to 200°C or higher, depending on the design and pressure.
