- In modern engines, the role of spark plugs has evolved with technological advancements. Many now feature multiple spark capabilities, igniting the fuel mixture more effectively and efficiently, leading to cleaner emissions and better fuel efficiency. Some even have built-in sensors that provide real-time data to the engine control unit, enabling advanced diagnostics and precision tuning.
FKM or FPM, which is in well-known brand Viton™, can withstand higher liquid temperatures of up to 180 ˚C. FKM is highly resistant to strong acids and bases, as well as to synthetic oils and greases. Glycol-based oil and grease, however, can also damage FKM.
Sealing edge This refers to the component of the oil seal that makes contact with the shaft.
It is wedge-shaped to be pressed against the shaft surface and makes contact with the shaft to ensure sufficient sealing performance and suitability for operation at high peripheral speed.
The spark plug is essentially a device that generates an electric spark to ignite the compressed air-fuel mixture inside the engine cylinder. This ignition process creates a small explosion, which pushes the piston down and ultimately drives the vehicle forward. Without spark plugs, the engine would not be able to start or run efficiently.
Oil seals for steel production equipment
Seals are designed to create a tight seal around the shaft by utilising a combination of lip geometry, surface tension, and lubrication. When the shaft rotates, the lip of the oil seal comes into contact with the shaft surface, creating a frictional force that generates heat. This heat helps to soften and conform the elastomeric material of the oil seal to the shape of the shaft, ensuring an effective sealing action.
How to Choose the Right Oil Seal
Generally, an oil seal is made up of an outer circular metal part and a bonded inner flexible material (often nitrile rubber) that does the actual sealing.

If the manifolds have been removed, refit them with new gaskets (See Exhaust manifold gasket replacement ).
