Materials for Oil Seals
Oil seals close off the space between stationary and moving components in the mechanical equipment. It saves the lubricant from escaping through the equipment and ensures smooth operation of the machine.

Proper care and maintenance of square rubber gaskets are essential to ensure their longevity and effectiveness. Regular inspection for signs of wear, damage, or degradation is important to prevent leaks and maintain the integrity of the seal. Replacing worn or damaged gaskets promptly can help prevent costly repairs and downtime.
The valve cover gasket and spark plugs are integral components in the engine's ignition system. The valve cover gasket seals the valve cover to prevent oil leaks, while the spark plugs play a crucial role in igniting the air-fuel mixture within the combustion chambers. Proper sealing provided by the valve cover gasket is essential for maintaining the integrity of the engine, while reliable spark plugs contribute to efficient ignition and combustion, ensuring optimal engine performance.

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 in the motor, including the engine and other critical components, are essential for maintaining the integrity and efficiency of the vehicle. These seals are designed to contain lubricating oil and prevent leaks, contributing to the smooth operation and longevity of the motor. Proper maintenance and replacement of oil seals in the motor are crucial for the reliability and performance of the vehicle's systems.
