Once you have selected the most suitable seal available, considering the environment, temperature, shaft speed, pressure, lubrication availability, as well as the size, of course, the seal should be stored adequately and then fitted properly. Here are a few suggestions that could help:-
Choosing the correct oil seal application


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.

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.

Operating conditions such as the engine’s temperature, position, size, pressure and shaft speed largely determine which individual oil seal composition is most suitable for every individual application.
