Description

The BECA 478 profile is a wiper seal composed of a thin brass wiping lip assembled in tandem with a second rubber wiping lip in a metal shell. This seal is designed to efficiently remove the solid particles (ice, mud) and all other impurities that stick to the rod.

Advantages

Very good external wiping effect even for stubborn soiling (ice, mud)
Very good abrasion resistance
Assembly in open groove

NBR

Nitrile rubber (NBR) is the general term for acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer. The ACN content can vary between 18% and 50%. While the acrylonitrile content is important, the resistance to oil and fuel is more so. Conversely, the elasticity and compression set are not as good. The NBR has good mechanical properties and good wear resistance. However, its resistance to atmospheric agents and the ozone is relatively low.

Chemical resistance Aliphatic hydrocarbons (propane, butane, petroleum, diesel fuel)
Mineral oils and greases
Fire-resistant fluids (HFA, HFB and HFC)
Diluted acids, low-temperature alkaline and saline solutions
Water (up to +100°C max)
Compatibility issue Fuels with high aromatic content
Aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene)
Chlorinated hydrocarbons (trichlorethylene)
Polar solvents (ketone, acetone, acetic acid, ethylene-ester)
Strong acids
Glycol-based brake fluids
Atmospheric and ozone agents
Temperature range -30°C/+100°C
-40°C / +100°C with our low-temperature NBR

Brass

The brasses are alloys composed of copper and zinc with varying proportions.
