When selecting a natural rubber gasket for your specific application, there are several key factors to consider. The first is the hardness of the gasket, which is typically measured on the Shore A scale. A softer gasket (lower Shore A hardness) is more flexible and better suited for applications where the sealing surface is uneven, while a harder gasket (higher Shore A hardness) provides better resistance to compression and extrusion.
Figure 5 explains the JTEKT seal numbering system.
Seal numbers consist of
(1) the seal type code,
(2) the spring code,
(3) the lip type code,
(4) the dimensional numbers, and
(5) the special type code,
and Table 6 shows examples of each of these codes/numbers.Oil Seals: Function & Maintenance
Oil seals are widely used as sealing devices for machines.
JTEKT's oil seals are described in our catalog, Oil Seals & O-Rings.
However, the catalog uses a large number of technical terms and is very long, so many people seem to have trouble handling it.
Therefore, this series of columns will summarize the following in order:
• The structure, functions, and types of oil seals
• How to select the right oil seal
• Handling of seals, and causes and countermeasures for oil seal failureHow does an Oil Seal Work
- Transmission gaskets, on the other hand, ensure that fluids are contained within the transmission system, facilitating smooth gear shifts and preventing fluid leaks. Similarly, fuel tank gaskets prevent gasoline from seeping out, ensuring safe and efficient fuel delivery. Exhaust gaskets prevent toxic fumes from escaping the system, while radiator gaskets prevent coolant loss, both contributing to the overall efficiency and safety of the vehicle Exhaust gaskets prevent toxic fumes from escaping the system, while radiator gaskets prevent coolant loss, both contributing to the overall efficiency and safety of the vehicle

- Introduction
- Features of the Oil Seal 20/34/7
The company manufactures its line of cartridge assembly seals for industrial pumps, agitators, reactors, and Industrial Compressor Seals. They also specialize in mechanical seals emergency repair services 24/7 to minimize industrial downtime.
If you follow the above instructions, the oil seals should work properly. Also watch the video below for an example of the installation process.
When installed, the oil seal’s flexible lip is placed against the rotating shaft, and the casing is pushed into the housing for support. It is crucial that the sealing lip is lubricated to avoid overheating caused by friction.
