What Is Oil Seal?

There are a variety of oil seals used in a variety of applications to help close the space between a stationary and a moving part. By closing the space it prevents any lubricants from escaping. Additionally, oil seals help create a seal that prevents any contaminants from entering machinery which can cause a host of problems. Mechanical equipment and machinery require different size or type oil seals to ensure that there is a superior and precise seal. Because oil seals help reduce contamination or mixing of materials it prolongs the life of machinery and helps ensure a more reliable performance.

The simplest way is to know either the preferred manufacturers part number, the overall sizes of shaft diameter, housing diameter and bore depth, or use our brochure to establish the M Barnwell Services ordering reference. Many of the old traditional names of seal manufacturers have either changed or disappeared in this age of “acquisitions”. If no longer available, we will advise you and offer a suitable alternative seal, from stock whenever possible. If your concern is getting the right seals for the job, you will need to know something about the application as well as the overall sizes. If you have any doubts – contact us, we will help in your seal selection.
Why Is Bearing A Seal Important?
Silicone oil seals, which are also called VMQ, have strong resistance to temperature, which ranges from -140 degrees Fahrenheit to 392 degrees Fahrenheit. They are also resistant to ozone, light, and harsh weather conditions. Silicone is frequently used in hydraulics and pneumatics, as well as in the food and medical industries. Due to the material’s transparency and flexibility, it’s commonly chosen for the manufacturing of o-rings, molded parts, and flat seals, as well as electrical insulators.
