Back-up rings are the most common anti-extrusion devices employed in dynamic and static sealing, designed to prevent the migration of sealing material into the extrusion gap under the system pressure. Parker offers a wide range of back-up ring geometries and materials to suit every seal type and application. They are open or closed shapes for snap assembly made of a broad range of compounds which are highly resistant to thermal or mechanical stress. Parker back-up rings help reduce costly downtime and ensure long-term functional reliability.

Parker has the skills and experience to offer custom seals that are completely unique and designed exclusively for a specific application profile. Parker’s application engineers are on hand to ensure you get the best solution for your application needs, whether those be functional requirements, gland limitations, installation improvements, etc. Our advanced material know-how and design expertise is at your fingertips whenever you require a bespoke sealing solution.
Parker piston seals for hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders and actuators are designed to separate applied pressure between the piston and the rod side during the stroke movement. They are available as single-acting and double acting seals in a wide range of compound and profile configurations to meet diverse applications: high and low temperatures and pressures, a wide variety of media, harsh operating conditions, various friction requirements, etc. Parker piston seals can cover working temperatures from -50°C to 230°C and working pressures up to 800 bar. Some seal profiles are insensitive to extreme pressure peaks. There are piston seals available that comply with ISO 6020, ISO 5597 and ISO 7425-1 standards.
Parker´s fastener seals are composite sealing washers, consisting of a metallic carrier and a vulcanized elastomer sealing lip. They provide a static sealing function on flanges or threaded connections, and consistently assure ideal compression conditions between the housing components to prevent the destruction of the sealing lip. Parker´s fastener seals provide long and reliable service, a high degree of reusability, and easy assembly. They have been engineered to eliminate over-compression, provide easy and accurate placement of the seal thanks to a self-centring design, and deliver improved joint stability via the solid metal-to-metal contact.
Buffer seals are primary seals in tandem sealing configurations. Designed to withstand pressure peaks from the system, Parker hydraulic buffer seals employ an unsymmetrical cross-section design and are often combined with anti-extrusion rings to prevent gap extrusion. State-of-the-art designs include a pressure-relief functionality from the low pressure side, addressing concerns related to drag-oil pressure trapped between the tandem elements. Our comprehensive selection of premium buffer seals are designed for use with hydraulic cylinders, providing excellent wear resistance, and high pressure capabilities. Parker buffer seals combine advanced polymer materials, such as PTFE or TPU with sophisticated product design.
