SKF hydraulic seals keep pressurized fluid contained in cylinders, pumps and valves. A leaking seal wastes oil, drops working pressure and puts extra wear on pumps and valves. Because the right seal is matched to the application, not to a similar-looking code, MR Industrial Accessories supplies the SKF line and helps you pinpoint the reference you need.
The part numbers in this family are six digits and do not run in an obvious order. Each code stands for a specific geometry and compound, so codes that look close are not substitutes for one another. Common references include 504262, 504268, 504270 and 504279, though the family covers many more. The reliable way to order is with the full code, plus a photo or sample of the original seal when you have one.
You will find these seals in hydraulic cylinders on agricultural, road and earthmoving machinery, in presses and metallurgical equipment, in lifting systems and platforms, and in hydraulic equipment for food and plastics processing. They suit pressurized-oil service where dust and changing temperatures are part of the job.
Selection depends on working pressure, temperature, fluid and travel speed. The finish of the rod or cylinder and the radial clearance also matter, since a seal that is wrongly sized either leaks or fails early. At assembly, keep the housing clean and free of burrs, lubricate the seal with the same oil used in the system and avoid twisting it as it goes in. Correct alignment helps the assembly last.
Hydraulic seals are identified by code and dimensions rather than by brand. The same code can appear across manufacturers, but the compound, lip and tolerances may differ, so they are not always interchangeable. If the code is missing, we can cross-reference caliper measurements and the application type. Send the code or measurements by WhatsApp or email and the team will reply promptly, suggest equivalents and help you choose.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I order an SKF hydraulic seal without the code?
- Send the housing and rod measurements, the fluid type and the working pressure by WhatsApp. We use that to find the equivalent reference. A photo or sample of the old seal helps confirm geometry and compound.
- Can SKF hydraulic seals handle any oil?
- Compounds differ in fluid compatibility. Some seals are made for mineral oil, others for synthetic fluids or high-temperature service. Tell us the oil in the equipment and the working temperature so we can point to the right compound.
- What should I watch for when installing a hydraulic seal?
- Clean the housing, remove burrs and lubricate the seal with the same system oil before inserting it. Do not twist or strike it, and check rod alignment. Careful installation helps prevent early leaks.
