Oil seal specifications

Most oil seals consist of some basic elements that configure their structure, such as the sealing element, the metal case, and the spring:
Floating oil seals are essential components used in various industries to prevent leakage of oil and other fluids. These seals are designed to float on the surface of the oil, creating a barrier that keeps the oil contained within a system. They are commonly used in gearboxes, hydraulic systems, and other machinery where the potential for oil leakage is a concern.

An effective way to ensure particles do not contaminate your oil seal is to store it in a container or sealed bag away from areas where dust and debris are prevalent. Resealable, heavy-duty plastics bags and bins are ideal for keeping your shaft seal protected.
1. The oil seal consists of a metal ring as the inner skeleton which provides the structural stability to the oil seal.

Early engines used O-rings (also called packing rings or toric joints) as seals (first patented in 1896). These are just mechanical gaskets in the shape of a torus (a circular ring--like a lifesaver), seated in a groove and compressed during assembly between two or more parts. It creates a seal at the interface. However, O-rings require a fluid film to lubricate them. They have limited usefulness in vacuum application and at extremes of temperature. The modern oil seal represents a significant improvement over the simple O-ring because it effectively seals in lubrication and prevents contamination from outside under a wide range of pressures and temperatures.
