In addition to their resilience, neoprene foam gaskets also provide excellent sealing properties. The foam material is compressible, allowing the gaskets to conform to irregular surfaces and create a tight seal. This sealing capability makes neoprene foam gaskets an effective solution for preventing leaks and ensuring the integrity of equipment and machinery.



Oil seals, also known as rotary shaft seals, are designed to prevent oil leaks in rotating machinery by sealing the gap between a rotating shaft and a stationary housing. Proper installation of oil seals is essential to ensure a leak-free performance, which in turn helps to extend the life of the machinery. In this article, we will go over the steps for installing oil seals correctly.
