4. O-Rings Though often used in static applications, specifically designed O-rings can serve as effective shaft seals in hydraulic systems. Their circular shape allows them to compress and create a tight seal under pressure.

Hydraulic shaft seals are used to prevent hydraulic fluid from leaking out of the system while keeping external contaminants from entering. These seals are positioned around the shaft, which is a rotating or reciprocating part that connects various components of a hydraulic system. The integrity of these seals is crucial as any failure can lead to fluid leakage, operational inefficiencies, and potential damage to machinery.

4. Backup Rings These are used in conjunction with O-rings and other seals to prevent extrusion in high-pressure applications. They support the primary seal, enhancing durability and performance.

1. Disassembly The first step in seal repair is safely disassembling the hydraulic cylinder. This includes relieving any pressure in the system, disconnecting hydraulic lines, and carefully removing the cylinder from its mounting.
