Typical Applications

Chesterton® 600 is aV-ring set for HYDRAULICapplications. It providesan economical means of sealing older wornequipment. It is particularlyadaptable to deep stuffing boxes and odd sized ramswhere equipment cannotbe disassembled.

■ Available split and solid.■ Nesting V-ring design

enables the gland force to transfer pressure so each ring loads evenly to increase sealing efficiency.

■ Available materials are NEOPRENE, which performs well in water and oil, and BUTYL, developed to work with Phosphate Ester fluids.

• Metal extrusionpresses

• Telescoping cylinders
