- Chemical Erosion: If the seal material is incompatible with the chemicals or lubricants used in the machinery, it can degrade over time, leading to seal failure.
- Firstly, let's understand the percentages. In the context of oil seals, these figures often refer to the percentage of the seal's cross-sectional area that comes into contact with the shaft or bore it seals. A 55% oil seal, for instance, indicates that 55% of the seal's circumference is in contact with the sealing surface. This percentage influences the seal's ability to withstand pressure, resist wear, and maintain a tight barrier against oil leakage.
Oil seals made of HNBR are characterised by excellent properties that include high resistance to mineral oils with additives, low steam and gas permeability, good cold flexibility down to -30 °C depending on type, good ozone resistance and friction resistance. HNBR seals withstand heat up to 150°C.

Standard springs are made of carbon steel. We use stainless-steel springs for our GR and GRST oil seals made from FKM rubber. In some rare cases, an O-ring is even used as a spring element. Standard PTFE lip seals are not fitted with springs.
