This tough, chemically inert polymer has a wide working scope as well as: 

2) Special seal types and their features

ERIKS type M (type B according to the DIN standard) has a single metal casing and rubber sealing lip. Since the casing is made of metal, it must be fitted in a well-finished, undamaged groove. Large volumes of oil seals with metal casings are often cheaper, which is why they are often used as original equipment in machines. However, if an oil seal has to be replaced, types with a rubber exterior (type R or RST) are easier to fit. Type MST is similar to M and commonly used. The difference is the dust lip in the MST oil seal that prevents dust and dirt reaching the sealing lip, and extends its service life in dusty environments.

INTRODUCTION TO OIL SEALS AND HOW THEY ARE USED

We have different types of oil seals that are designed specifically for various industries, like aerospace, automotive, oil & gas, electronics, chemical analysis, food & beverage, engineering, and so on. Some of our other custom products are bellows, insulators, labware, bushings, ball valve seats, tubes, rods, films, and sheets. Contact us today to make sure you choose the best component for your application.

The ignition spark plug is essentially a small device that is screwed into the cylinder head of the engine. It consists of a central electrode, an insulator, and a ground electrode. When the engine's piston compresses the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder, the spark plug creates a spark that ignites the mixture, causing combustion to occur.

They are typically made from elastomers such as rubber or silicone and consist of an outer metal case with a sealing lip on the inner side.

If you have prepared the assembly properly, then you are already largely on your way to a successful installation. The assembly of the oil seal itself is not complex. It is, of course, important that it is done properly in view of the longevity and reliability of the seal.
