Oil Seals
Oil seals, also known as shaft seals or lip seals, are critical components designed to prevent the leakage of lubricants and to keep contaminants like dust, dirt, and moisture from entering the machinery. They are used in rotating or reciprocating applications, where they provide a tight seal between stationary and moving parts, such as shafts and housings. Oil seals are commonly found in automotive, industrial, and manufacturing equipment, ensuring the proper function of engines, gearboxes, pumps, and other mechanical systems by maintaining the integrity of lubricants.
Oil seals are made from a variety of materials like rubber, silicone, or PTFE, and are chosen based on the application's temperature, pressure, and fluid compatibility. They often feature a flexible lip that maintains contact with the rotating shaft, providing a barrier against oil leaks while preventing contaminants from entering the system. This extends the life of machinery, reduces wear and tear on components, and ensures efficient operation with minimal maintenance.
