I sell a product that acts basically like an air cylinder. *It has a tube

How about a stainless bellows to seal the tube/shaft, then use
any lubed seal you like. High-vacuum apparatus also doesn't
like most oily materials, and is frequently brazed/soldered with
a sylphon (bellows) for this reason.
