- In conclusion, the main bearing oil seal is a vital component in the engine's lubrication system. Its ability to prevent oil leakage while allowing the rotation of the crankshaft is essential for the smooth operation and extended service life of the engine. By understanding the design, materials, and compatibility requirements of the main bearing oil seal, engine owners can ensure the longevity and reliability of their vehicles.
- Low temperature tolerant.
- The oil seal is typically made of rubber or other synthetic materials that are resistant to oil and heat. It is placed in strategic locations within the motor where oil needs to be contained, such as the crankshaft and camshaft seals. These seals are essential for preventing oil leaks that can lead to engine damage and failure.
A more comprehensive study of aeration by Dinzburg8 showed that even a minimal level of aeration of an aggressive European SF oil led to protection of a VDF/HFP/TFE compound, but to severe deterioration of an HNBR compound. He notes that aeration increases the severity of aging in oil for silicone and acrylic elastomers, while decreasing the severity for FKM elastomers.
- Installation and maintenance of pulley oil seals are equally important. Incorrect installation can compromise the seal's functionality, leading to leaks and reduced efficiency. Regular inspection and timely replacement of worn seals are necessary to avoid potential breakdowns and costly repairs.

Figure 5 explains the JTEKT seal numbering system.
Seal numbers consist of
(1) the seal type code,
(2) the spring code,
(3) the lip type code,
(4) the dimensional numbers, and
(5) the special type code,
and Table 6 shows examples of each of these codes/numbers.
This is a specific type of synthetic rubber that’s commonly used in o-rings, gaskets, oil seals, sterile & chemical resistant gloves, and other molded items. Viton has a high density and it possesses the widest temperature range of -40 degrees Fahrenheit to more than 400 degrees Fahrenheit. This is why it’s highly preferred as the best material for higher temperature applications.
It is generally used in the union of two lubricated parts, so that it hermetically seals both sides. Therefore, it guarantees the proper engine operation and helps to maintain the vehicle’s distribution system in better condition.
