Other maintenance factors, such as


mechanical oil seal. This design helps to prevent oil leakage by trapping oil within the seal and redirecting it back into the system. Labyrinth seals are commonly used in high-speed applications where traditional lip seals may fail.
Several variables must be considered when selecting oil seals. The physical dimensions and materials will vary depending on the environment of use. In addition, oil seals must remain lightweight, compact, and exhibit high self-lubrication performance.
Advantages:
– Good static sealing
– Compensation of different thermal expansion
– Reduced risk of fretting corrosion
– Higher bore surface roughness is allowed
– Installation in split-housings
– Modern lip design provides low radial forces

With the application cleaned and the components ready, you’ll begin your installation.
Oil seals come with various lip designs, each serving a unique purpose and suitable for different applications. Let’s discuss the most common industry-standard lip designs:
