- In the world of internal combustion engines, the role of spark plugs is paramount. They ignite the air-fuel mixture in the engine's cylinders, triggering the controlled explosion that propels your vehicle forward. One variant that has garnered significant attention in recent years is the Turbo Spark Plug. This innovative technology takes the standard spark plug to new heights, offering a blend of enhanced efficiency and performance.
The temperature within the oil seal environment is the main factor that dictates the composition of an oil seal. Generally, there is a range of set temperatures that are optimal for that material. If the operating environment is too cold, the seal may become brittle and, at high temperatures, the seal material may show increased elasticity and become leaky.

(2) When the ambient temperature is high, polyacrylate or silicon, fluorine, and silicon fluorine rubber should be selected. And should try to lower the oil temperature in the tank. When the operating temperature is too low, cold-resistant rubber should be used.

In addition to selecting the right type of oil seal, it is essential to consider the operating conditions of the equipment. Factors such as temperature, pressure, and speed can impact the performance and longevity of the seal. Choosing a seal that is rated for the specific operating conditions will help ensure reliable sealing and extended service life.

When you start the actual installation make sure that the oil seal is always facing the right direction. So, not facing outwards, but always with the spring facing the side of the medium to be sealed. The oil seal must then be pressed into the bore. Use appropriate tools, such as a bearing fitting tool set, to ensure that this is done evenly. The oil seal must never be forcefully hammered into the bore.

2. Oil seal structure and functions
Oil seals go by many names, such as shaft seals, dirt seals, grease seals, lip seals, and many other variations of these. They are essentially simple devices used in rotary shaft equipment to prevent lubricant from escaping and for excluding contaminants such as dust, dirt and water. An oil seal’s most important function, however, is that it protects every type of ball, sleeve and roller bearing in the rotating shafts. The seals also prevent the integration of two different fluids that shouldn’t mix, such as oil and water.
