A new wear ring product allows more customers to experience quality and reliability at better price performance ratio.

Trelleborg Sealing Solutions is continually working to enhance the design and performance of their wear rings. Slydring, Trelleborg’s proprietary line of wear rings guide pistons within hydraulic cylinders, absorb transverse forces and prevent metal-to-metal contact between stationary and moving components. The material choice of Slydring is vital to its effective performance. Its manufactured in many proprietary material grades, including Turcite and Orkot, for medium to heavy-duty applications.

The new HiMod Slydring HC (Inch Version) is the latest offering within the HiMod range, which offers extensive operational benefits at an excellent price-to-performance ratio for multiple applications, such as industrial machinery, off-highway construction equipment and agricultural equipment. HiMod HM803 offers excellent performance in key operating parameters and is great value for the money.

What is HiMod?
HiMod refers to a range of high-modulus plastic materials that Trelleborg Sealing Solutions developed for applications demanding high wear and chemical resistance performance. These materials also exhibit low friction performance created by a unique balance of internal lubricants and wear inhibiting agents. The materials can be machined or injection moulded, providing engineers the design freedom to develop the most economical manufacturing method.

“Durability and reliability in linear hydraulic cylinders is critically important to our customers,” says Tom Zozokos, Product Manager at Trelleborg Sealing Solutions. “The new HiMod Slydring HC wear rings have been engineered to meet the demanding requirements of hydraulic applications. These wear rings deliver reliable performance and offer our customers a chance to experience Trelleborg quality at a competitive price point.”

HiMod Slydring HC has several advantages for uses in a variety of operational conditions.
• They have high compressive strength and wear resistance even at elevated temperatures, give low friction performance in lubricated settings, and are easy to install with their simple closed grooved design.
• The rings also eliminate local stress concentrations, fretting and seizure, while damping mechanical vibrations, protecting against dieseling and reducing hydrodynamic pressure problems.
