Obtaining adequate adhesion of fluoroelastomer compounds to metal inserts is a major consideration in fabrication of shaft seals. Adhesive systems worked out for bisphenol-cured VDF/HFP/TFE elastomers often do not perform adequately for peroxide-curable fluoroelastomers and more base-resistant polymers that contain little or no VDF. The trend toward use of more resistant fluoroelastomers in shaft seals has necessitated considerable effort on compounding and adhesive system development to get adequate bonding of the new materials. Silane-type primers are often used to coat metal inserts; these contain residual active groups such as amine functions that interact with the fluoroelastomer compound to attain good adhesion, especially for VDF/HFP/TFE elastomers. Other adhesive systems, using epoxy compounds or tie-coats, may be necessary for difficult bonding situations.3


Oil seals close off the space between stationary and moving components in the mechanical equipment. It saves the lubricant from escaping through the equipment and ensures smooth operation of the machine.
However, the new variant also comes with less good properties. Namely less flexibility and less resistance during assembly. Most damages therefore occur during the installation of PTFE oil seals.

2.0 tsi valve cover gasket.0% TSI engine running smoothly. Signs of a failing gasket include oil leaks around the valve cover, a burning smell coming from the engine, or a drop in oil pressure. If any of these symptoms are present, it is crucial to replace the gasket as soon as possible to prevent further damage to the engine.
