It is located at the exposed end of the cylinder rod, where it comes into contact with the external environment. Its primary function is to prevent the ingress of contaminants such as dirt, dust, water, and other debris into the cylinder. By sealing the rod it helps to maintain the integrity of the hydraulic system and prevents damage to the cylinder's internal components. Attributes: • Designed to withstand high-pressure levels. • Designed to withstand both high and low temperatures. • Withstand the abrasive nature of hydraulic fluids and resist wear over time. Applications: A Buffer seal maintains the performance and longevity of a steering cylinder by ensuring a clean and well-sealed environment for the cylinder rod. It is extensively used in Cat 966G, 966H, 972G and 972H Wheel Loaders.
