How to Choose the Right Oil Seal
When selecting the oil seal that is right for your machine, it is important that the oil seal be appropriate for the requirements of the usage environment and that it be easily acquired for replacement.
In this month's column, How to select the right oil seal, we conveyed the following points:
1) Oil seal shape and material should be selected based on the housing, substance to be sealed, pressure, rotational speed, total eccentricity, and air-side conditions.
2) Oil seals can show good sealing performance in combination with properly designed shafts and housings.
3) Oil seal performance is affected by not only the type and material of the selected oil seal, but also a variety of other factors, such as operating conditions, total eccentricity, rotational speed, the substance to be sealed, and lubrication conditions. For this reason, diligent care is required in oil seal selection.
Oil Seal Overview
Cassette seals are designed to maximise grease or oil retention and protection against liquid or solid contaminants. These seals are provided with their own bushings in which dirt is kept out and oil/grease kept in by a multi-lip seal.
Start the engine and check for oil leaks round the sump flange. Stop the engine and tighten the mountings.
Check the faces of the head and block for flatness. Alloy heads in particular can distort and then leak.
Proper preparation is crucial for successful oil seal installation. Ensuring that the seal, shaft, and bore are correctly prepared and aligned prevents seal failure, leakage, and premature wear of the components.
