Despite being a great substitute for more expensive high temperature resistant materials, polyacrylate has a problem of poor water compatibility and cold flexibility.
Preparing the oil seal installation
Cassette Seals
Since oil seals are versatile and multipurpose, they are suitable for all types of mechanical engineering situations, e.g., manufacturing units, automobiles, pumps, etc.
Synthetic Rubber Oil Seals - Styrene Butadiene Rubber oil seals, or just SBR oil seals, offer strong resistance to abrasions and lesions, making them an ideal seal for fast-moving machinery. With the ability to withstand extreme temperatures with its heat-aging qualities, they can be used in outdoor components. They are also seen as more cost-effective oil seals than natural rubber.
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.

First, wash your hands before handling the oil seal. This is because dirt on the sealing surface or oil in fingerprints can compromise the integrity of the seal, while small particles can cause wear and tear, damaging the sealing surface and leading to leaks.
Secondly, do not unpack the seal unless you are ready to install it. After opening, the seal face must be cleaned before installing it on the equipment to prevent contamination.
Finally, ensure that your equipment is clean. This is because dirty equipment can affect the effectiveness of the oil seal.
