Maintenance and Replacement of Oil Seals:
PTFE Oil Seals - A relatively new and exciting oil seal, the use of polytetrafluoroethylene means that they can withstand dry or unlubricated operations. With a massive thermal range of -130ºC to +200ºC and a strong resistance to chemicals, they are considered to be the future of rotary shaft seals.
4. Installing a new seal
Among the most common causes of oil seal failure are:
Oil seals are used in a great many machines.
• High eccentricity-following lip shape
What Is Oil Seal?
Oil seals are commonly made from materials such as rubber, silicone, or polyurethane, with each material offering different properties and advantages. Rubber seals are flexible and cost-effective, making them suitable for a wide range of applications. Silicone seals offer high temperature resistance and chemical compatibility, while polyurethane seals are durable and abrasion-resistant.
