Because of the higher temperature resistance of FKM, this material is also chosen for applications where higher speeds play a role, which raise the temperature at the sealing lip considerably. Usually, using FKM will result in a longer life than using NBR. This compensates the higher price of FKM compared to NBR, as an FKM does not have to be replaced as frequently. The low temperature resistance of standard FKM is limited to -15 ˚C.
Oil seals come in a range of sizes ranging from 0 cm to 33 cm, and choosing the right size is critical to performance. The size of an oil seal is determined by the following dimensions:


Oil seals are used to fill gaps between stationary and revolving parts of equipment, often known as radial shaft seals or rotary seals. These seals are frequently employed to keep impurities out and prevent lubricating oils, hydraulic fluids, or other liquids from escaping out of the system. An oil seal features:
a) The shaft on which the oil seal is to be mounted should be ground with the surface finish or surface roughness between 0.2 to 0.8 Microns. It is best for the shaft to be hardened atleast to 40 – 45 HRc in order to prevent groove formation on the shaft due to the pressure exerted by the spring.
When the engine is running, the ignition coil receives a signal from the engine control unit to fire at the correct time. The coil then rapidly builds up a magnetic field within the primary winding when the signal is received, and when the signal is cut off, the magnetic field collapses rapidly, inducing a high voltage in the secondary winding. This high voltage is then sent to the spark plug, where it jumps the electrode gap, igniting the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber.

An oil seal normally consists of three basic components: the sealing element, the metal case and the spring. The purpose of the sealing element is to stop the fluid from leaking between the shaft and housing. The metal case will give rigidity and strength to the seal while it is being held in the bore or recessed groove. The garter spring ensures constant pressure and maintains the radial force to the shaft, flattening the sealing edge to a defined width. The garter spring maintains the radial force exerted by the sealing lip around the shaft surface. All materials must be selected depending on the environment in which the oil seal will function.
By far, nitrile is the most popularly used, but buyers who need seals for applications involving high-speed shaft rotation increased interest. Viton is another alternative for silicone and poly-acrylic because it’s more resistant to harmful chemicals and abrasion and works better in higher temperatures.
