Viton Oil Seals - A synthetic rubber and fluoropolymer elastomer, Viton is used to make oil seals that provide resistance in both high temperature, up to 250°C and low compression set components. They also offer a high resistance to chemicals and abrasions, so they can be used in elements that regularly interact with petroleum and solvents.
- In the automotive industry, U-shaped rubber gaskets are found in engine compartments, securing oil pans, radiator caps, and valve covers, ensuring a leak-free operation. In plumbing, they are employed to prevent water leakage in pipes, faucets, and toilets. They also play a crucial role in electronic devices, safeguarding sensitive components from dust, moisture, and vibrations They also play a crucial role in electronic devices, safeguarding sensitive components from dust, moisture, and vibrations

Properly installed, an oil seal will help keep machinery in perfect working order. Its primary functions include retaining or separating fluids, maintaining a bearing’s lubricity, preventing seal leakage, and preventing the entry of foreign contaminants. Other benefits of Emerson Bearing’s oil seals include:
- In the manufacturing industry, rubber edge gaskets are used in machinery, equipment, and industrial processes to prevent leakages and ensure smooth operation of the systems. Their versatility and reliability make them indispensable in a wide range of manufacturing applications.
- The 14mm spark plug is not just a mere spare part; it embodies the principle of precision engineering in the automotive sector. By ensuring reliable ignition and contributing to cleaner emissions, it demonstrates how even the smallest components can have a profound impact on our driving experience and the environment.
- 2. Disconnect the battery To prevent accidental short circuits during the installation process, disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery.
The material of the sealing lip is chosen according to the liquid to be sealed and the rotational speed. For larger shafts, an NBR sealing lip can cope with surface speeds of up to 10-12 m/s, while an FKM lip is suitable for speeds of up to 35-38 m/s.
PTFE, which is used in the well-known brand Teflon®, is less commonly used, but it is the preferred material for specific rotating seals in the chemical, food and pharmaceutical industries. This material is notable for having a very low frictional resistance and the best chemical resistance. It can also withstand a very wide range of temperatures in these types of seals; -80 ˚C to 200 ˚C. The shafts on which oil seals with PTFE lips are used require a harder and finer finish. Something like an axle sleeve can also be used to meet this requirement.
