  • Publication number: 20030111798
    Abstract: There is provided a seal ring which is excellent since the seal ring has a high durability under sliding at high pressure during a long-term use, and a necessary suitability for fitting. The seal ring can provide an effect of sealing oil stably for a long period of time, and possesses properties suitable particularly for a seal ring of endless type.

  • Publication number: 20020158424
    Abstract: A seal ring comprising 40 to 94% by weight of a polytetrafluoroethylene powder, 3 to 30% by weight of a heat resistant aromatic polyoxybenzoyl ester resin powder and 3 to 30% by weight of a graphite powder. A stable sealing effect can be obtained for a long period of time since a deformation of the seal ring is small for the use even under a high pressure and an abrasion of an opposite material can be inhibited even if the opposite material is a soft metal. Further a frictional force is small, and a change in a sliding torque is small. Therefore the seal ring is suitable as a seal ring for a power steering where operability and response of the sealing device can be enhanced and also as a seal ring for an automatic transmission which slides at high revolutions and as a seal ring for a shock absorber which is required to have a sealing property under reciprocating sliding environment.
