Clipper Oil
Seals provide superior performance in the most demanding and critical
applications.
OEMs worldwide know Clipper Oil Seals for their ability to provide
superior performance in the most demanding and critical applications. A
one-piece moulded construction and the ability to provide
application-specific designs, if needed, are just a few of the reasons
Clipper seals are specified for critical applications. These
applications include as aircraft landing gear, military vehicles,
underground mining equipment and roll chocks used in the steel industry.
Clipper seals are available for shaft diameters from 0.250" (6.35 mm) to
over 65" (1651 mm) in both standard and high performance elastomer
compounds. With over 10,000 tooled sizes, Clipper seals are readily
available for most applications in either a solid or split design.
The most unique feature of the Clipper oil seal is
non-metallic construction. The metal case that is common with
traditional lip seals is replaced with an aramid fibre and elastomer
composite material. A wide range of lip profiles are available with the
aramid composite OD to suit virtually any application need.
302 Stainless Steel is standard on Clipper Oil
Seals (316 SS is also available)
where the industry standard
is a lower quality carbon steel . Clipper’s spring material provides
improved lip loading at higher temperatures and resists the rust and
corrosion that is common with lower quality materials. The upgraded
spring ensures consistent lip loading over the life of the seal.
