The Parker OC profile is a bi-directional rod seal for use in low to medium duty hydraulic actuators. The OC profile is a two piece design utilizing a rectangular PTFE cap and standard size Parker O-ring. The OC profile is an excellent choice for applications requiring a compact design. The unique properties of the modified PTFE provide added wear resistance for improved cycle life. Parker's OC profile is designed to retrofit non-Parker seals of similar design. Options: Notches: Adding an "N" to the end of the part number indicates that notches are to be added to the side walls of the PTFE cap. Notches can help optimize the seal's response to fluid pressure. In application, the void created by the notch allows fluid pressure to fill the cavity between the side face of the gland and the seal. Consult EPS Division for the availability and cost to add side notches to the OC profile.
