- The primary function of an oil seal is to create a tight barrier between two surfaces, one stationary and the other in motion. It achieves this by utilizing a combination of materials, including rubber, plastics, and metals, which are carefully selected for their compatibility with the operating conditions and the fluids being sealed.
In choosing the right oil seal type for your application, it is essential to assess factors such as speed, temperature range, pressure levels, chemical compatibility, shaft material, and installation space limitations. By considering these factors carefully, you can ensure that you select an oil seal that will provide optimal performance and longevity in your specific application.
Oil seal WG1087811 is used by several automotive manufacturers, such as Opel, Fiat and Suzuki, and serves as a good example for an oil seal where oil leakage can occur if fitted incorrectly.
