The sealing process involves the interaction between the rotating shaft and the elastomeric material, resulting in a dynamic barrier that prevents fluid leakage and maintains system integrity.

Purpose of an Oil Seal
Aspects to consider when selecting oil seals
Type ‘C’ oil seal has an additional cup inserted into the outer cup of ‘B’ type. The supplementary metal inner ring provides a superior stiffness. This type is recommended for use in heavy polluted environments. As the static sealing between housing and metallic shell is limited, low viscosity media can “creep”.
The car head gasket, also known as the cylinder head gasket, is a critical sealing component in the engine that plays a pivotal role in maintaining the integrity of the combustion chamber. This gasket is designed to seal the cylinder head to the engine block, preventing the leakage of coolant, oil, and combustion gases. A properly functioning car head gasket is essential for ensuring optimal engine performance, preventing overheating, and maintaining the overall efficiency of the engine.
Sealing of lip type seal is normally a result of an interference fit between the flexible sealing element, usually augmented by spring pressure and a shaft. Fluid retention is based on the precise amount of lip contact pressure. In most lip seals, increased fluid pressure in the sealed area causes lip contact pressure on the shaft to increase.
