For hydraulic cylinder rods, the SKF TIL series seal combines a single lip with a spring to hold fluid under pressure and keep outside contaminants from entering. The elastomer body is built for this rod-sealing role. Standard sizes include 20x28x6.3, 25x33x6.3 and 35x45x8. MR Industrial Accessories offers this line for hydraulic repair and maintenance work.
The TIL code itself tells you the size. After the profile letters, three numbers separated by X give inner diameter, outer diameter and width, all in millimeters. So TIL 20X28X6.3 means a 20 mm inner diameter, 28 mm outer diameter and 6.3 mm width. TIL 25X33X6.3 and TIL 35X45X8 follow the same pattern. Reading the code this way lets you match a seal to a rod and housing quickly.
These seals show up in hydraulic cylinders and actuators on farm equipment, road machinery, presses, cranes and linear motion systems. Steering cylinders and hydraulic brakes on heavy vehicles also use them. The TIL profile suits medium-pressure, moderate-speed operation, where the rod must seal oil while staying protected from dust and moisture.
Choosing the right TIL seal means checking three things: rod diameter, housing diameter and cavity width. During installation, keep everything clean, lubricate with the system oil and use tools without burrs so the lip is not damaged. Rod and housing must align well; misalignment speeds up wear. In dusty or wet conditions, consider a seal with an added wiper lip or a dust guard.
SKF TIL seals can be interchanged with similar profiles from other makers if the three dimensions and the lip type match. Inner and outer diameter alone are not enough: width and lip geometry control sealing and pressure limits. Compare drawings or physical samples when sourcing a replacement. MR Industrial Accessories can help if you provide the full code or the original seal dimensions.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I find the size of an SKF TIL seal?
- The TIL code contains three numbers separated by X: inner diameter, outer diameter and width in millimeters. For TIL 20X28X6.3, that is 20 mm inner, 28 mm outer and 6.3 mm width. Check these on the rod and housing before ordering.
- Is a TIL seal different from a standard oil seal?
- Yes. The TIL seal is made for hydraulic cylinder rods, with a lip that handles oil pressure and a spring that keeps contact. A standard oil seal is typically for rotating shafts. For a hydraulic cylinder, use a profile like TIL rather than a standard oil seal.
- Can I use another brand instead of an SKF TIL seal?
- Yes, if the replacement has the same inner, outer and width dimensions and an equivalent lip profile. Interchange works when those variables match. If unsure, send the code or a photo and we will advise you from MR Industrial Accessories.
