Leaking hydraulic cylinders drain productivity fast. I’ve been there—messy oil, wasted time, and costly downtime. But once I followed a structured process, seal replacement became straightforward.
Hydraulic seal replacement involves removing the cylinder, disassembling it, cleaning every component, installing new seals, and reassembling with precision.
Let’s walk through this—from tools to seal selection—to help you do it right the first time.
What tools are needed to replace hydraulic seals?
The wrong tools cause scratches, leaks, and failed repairs. Using the correct toolkit is critical for a damage-free, efficient seal replacement process.
| 道具 | 関数 | ヒント |
|---|---|---|
| シールピック | Remove old seals | Use plastic tips to avoid scratches |
| Installer Tool | Fit seals into grooves | Use lubrication for smoother fit |
| Wrenches/Allen Key | Disassemble cylinder | ボルトのねじれを防ぐためにボルトのサイズを合わせる |
| 糸くずの出ない布 | Clean inner surfaces | Prevent fiber residues |
| Soft Mallet | Gentle reassembly | Prevent rod and lip damage |
| 懐中電灯 | Inspect cylinder interior | Look for wear, rust, or scoring |
Always clean components with non-residue solvent. Even small debris can destroy a new seal.
Many professionals rely on NBR Oリング for routine hydraulic repairs.
How do I choose the right seal for my hydraulic cylinder?
Seal selection depends on cylinder configuration, pressure, and groove dimensions. Matching the right seal type prevents leaks and extends service life.
| シリンダータイプ | Best Seal Type | Groove | 製品リンク |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rod End (Single) | 国連 | Closed groove | UN油圧シール |
| Buffer / Double Rod | 韓国語 | Open groove | KDASシール |
| ピストンシール | インド/オデュ | 対称的 | IDU/ODUシール |
| ダストワイパー | FA | 外縁 | FA Wiper Seals |
| Guide Support | ガイドバンド | No groove | ガイドバンド |

Why do hydraulic seals fail after replacement?
80% of early seal failures happen within 72 hours—usually due to installation errors or material mismatches. Here’s how to avoid them:
| 原因 | Problem | Prevention Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Wrong Material | Chemical or heat failure | Match fluid type & temperature |
| Poor Seating | Seal pops or leaks | Use correct tool + silicone lubricant |
| Rod Damage | Seal edge cuts | Smooth out burrs / polish rod ends |
| Dirty Surfaces | Grit causes abrasion | Clean thoroughly before install |
| Old Backup Rings | Misalignment + failure | Always replace entire kit |
If you're sealing systems under extreme load, consider using high-pressure O-rings for better resistance.
Can I use standard rubber seals in hydraulic systems?
No. General rubber materials lack the chemical and pressure resistance required for hydraulic environments. Always use seals designed specifically for hydraulic cylinders.
例えば、私たちの FKM Oリング provide exceptional performance in high-temperature hydraulic fluid applications.
How do I correctly measure hydraulic seals for replacement?
Measure the groove's:
- 内径（ID）
- 外径（OD）
- Width and Depth
Use a digital caliper and always match the profile with the original spec. For step-by-step instruction, read our guide on how to measure hydraulic seals.
What’s the difference between rod seals and piston seals?
Rod seals prevent leakage from the cylinder’s rod end, while piston seals block fluid between the internal piston chambers. Selecting both correctly ensures optimal system sealing.

結論
Replacing hydraulic seals requires more than tools—it takes precision. With the right materials, methods, and mindset, you’ll restore efficiency and extend service life.
