Shaft oil seals are used in a wide range of industries, including automotive, industrial, and aerospace
. In automotive applications, they are commonly used in engine crankshafts, camshafts, and differentials, where they help to prevent oil leaks and maintain optimal lubrication levels. In industrial applications, shaft oil seals are used in pumps, compressors, and other rotating equipment to protect bearings and other critical components from damage.

The best seal performance is achieved when close shaft and bore tolerances are present. Other factors include shaft eccentricity, end play and vibration.

Is the seal you need not available from one of our standard ranges? No problem. We design and supply seals in any material, size and quantity - from very small to very large volumes.
Oil seals close spaces between moving or stationary mechanical components to prevent lubricants like grease and oil from escaping, while also preventing dust, dirt, moisture, and other contaminants from entering the seal. Also known as shaft seals, dirt seals, lip seals, or grease seals, the primary components of any oil seal include an inner metal ring, which provides structural support, and a spring, which provides interference for effective sealing.
