8 tips to keep in mind when installing or replacing oil seals




Outstanding resistance to mineral oils, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, as well as CHCs, concentrated and diluted acids, and weak alkalis. Excellent resistance to high temperatures (up to 200 °C) and a low temperature resistance down to -40 °C depending on the type used as well as good mechanical attributes and an exceptionally good ageing resistance make FPM a cut well above the usual synthesis natural rubbers.

There is a little leakage as the fluid vapors get released into the atmosphere from the faces of the seal, though. Since the quantity is hardly quantifiable, the seals are considered leak proof.


The oil seals represent the most important type of dynamic sealing on rotating shafts. During the last years, we witnessed a great evolution in the technology, starting from their shape to the materials used nowadays.
This is a specific type of synthetic rubber that’s commonly used in o-rings, gaskets, oil seals, sterile & chemical resistant gloves, and other molded items. Viton has a high density and it possesses the widest temperature range of -40 degrees Fahrenheit to more than 400 degrees Fahrenheit. This is why it’s highly preferred as the best material for higher temperature applications.
