The sealing lip of the RST-D is more heavy-duty, so it can cope with pressures of up to 10 bar at slightly lower rotation speeds.

This type of oil seal can withstand only low speed and friction. It is recommended in places where thick fluid or grease is to be sealed. This is not recommended for difficult applications.

Various materials with unique properties are utilised in the construction of rotary shaft seals, allowing manufacturers to tailor the sealing solution to specific industry requirements and ensure optimal performance.

When it comes to choosing new spark plugs for your car, it is important to consider both cost and quality. While cheaper spark plugs may seem like a more cost-effective option upfront, they may end up costing you more in the long run if they need to be replaced more frequently. Investing in high-quality spark plugs made of premium materials can help improve your car's performance and fuel efficiency, ultimately saving you money in the long term.

U-shaped silicone gaskets are versatile sealing components used in various industries for their resilience, flexibility, and resistance to extreme temperatures and environmental conditions. These gaskets are commonly employed in applications where a reliable seal is required, such as in automotive, aerospace, and industrial equipment. The U-shaped design allows for easy installation and effective sealing, making them suitable for a wide range of applications.

Finding oil spots under a parked vehicle can be both worrying and stressful for any vehicle owner. If the seal’s leak is small, oil may start to accumulate on the underside of the engine. But as the leak gets bigger, the oil leak will become visible in the front side of the engine.  

Make sure that the new gasket is clean, and confirm which way round it fits. The upper side is usually marked 'top', 'haut' or 'oben'.
