THE USES OF OIL SEALS

Polyurethane


Quality assurance and compliance with industry standards are paramount in oil seal manufacturing. Leading companies in the sector adhere to stringent quality control measures to ensure that their products meet or exceed industry specifications. Compliance with regulatory requirements and industry standards is essential to provide customers with reliable and high-performance sealing solutions for their specific applications.
Oil seals can show good sealing performance in combination with properly designed shafts and housings.

Overview of Oil Lip Seals
One of the main principles of power transmission is consistent lubrication. Shaft seals play a hugely important role in this. Imagine a situation involving a shaft-mount reducer – electric motor prime mover, driven by belts, motion controlled by a torque arm – with an improperly seated seal. A blown-out input shaft seal is a nightmare situation, necessitating an entire breakdown and reassembly, not to mention re-aligning and re-tensioning the belts.

The basic principle of sealing is straightforward – the flexible lip is held against the rotating part (usually the shaft) whilst the casing (or O.D.) is pressed into the housing or bore and holds the seal in place. The sealing lip needs some form of lubrication to avoid overheating and is usually energized by means of a garter spring.
