Back Up Ring WS1014 Good Quality WaterJet Pump Parts

The Back Up Ring WS1014 is a precision-engineered sealing support component used in high-pressure Waterjet Intensifier Pumps. Its primary role is to reinforce and protect O-rings or main pressure seals from extrusion and deformation under ultra-high-pressure conditions, ensuring long-lasting, leak-free operation. Positioned behind the primary seal, the WS1014 provides structural stability, maintaining consistent sealing performance even at pressures up to 94,000 psi (6,480 bar).

Manufactured from reinforced PTFE (Teflon) or high-strength thermoplastic, the WS1014 back up ring offers outstanding resistance to high temperatures, hydraulic pressure, and chemical corrosion. Its low-friction surface ensures smooth seal movement during pressure cycling, reducing wear and extending the life of both the seal and the intensifier cylinder assembly.

The Back Up Ring WS1014 is fully compatible with KMT, FLOW, OMAX, WSI, BFT, and BHDT waterjet systems, and is typically used alongside High Pressure Seal Kits (such as WS1020) and Cylinder Seal Kits (like WA1008). Replacing the backup ring at regular maintenance intervals helps ensure consistent waterjet pressure, minimizes seal failure, and improves overall pump efficiency.
