The other way oil seals work is by stopping outboard materials that can damage the machine or contaminate its lubricant. The outboard materials that the oil seal will need to stop depend on the application. However, the most common kinds are dirt, moisture, and the particles produced during manufacturing.
Standard springs are made of carbon steel. We use stainless-steel springs for our GR and GRST oil seals made from FKM rubber. In some rare cases, an O-ring is even used as a spring element. Standard PTFE lip seals are not fitted with springs.

Lubricant can be retained in the space between the main lip and the minor lip.
Rubber valve cover gaskets are crucial components in automotive engines, serving to create a secure seal between the valve cover and the cylinder head. These gaskets prevent oil leaks and contaminants from entering the engine, ensuring proper lubrication and protection of critical components. High-quality rubber valve cover gaskets are essential for maintaining the integrity and performance of the engine, contributing to optimal engine operation and reliability.

The auto head gasket, also known as the cylinder head gasket, is a critical component in the engine that seals the cylinder head to the engine block. This gasket plays a pivotal role in maintaining the combustion chamber's integrity, preventing the leakage of coolant, oil, or combustion gases. A properly functioning auto head gasket is essential for ensuring optimal engine performance, preventing overheating, and maintaining the overall efficiency of the engine.
