Polyacrylate is a great compromise between cost and quality. It has a high performing temperature and chemical range, but not to the extent of the range of Viton. The temperature ranges from 31°C to 148°C (-25°F to 300°F). Polyacrylate is primarily used in automotive transmissions and hoses but also found in shaft seals, gaskets and o-rings, due to offering a high resistance to hot oil and oxidation. While Polyacrylate is a great alternative to other high temperature resistant materials that are more expensive, it does have a poor water compatibility and cold flexibility. The best situation for Polyacrylate is an environment where heat and oil resistance but cost is the major issue. And while these 4 different materials cover a wide range of applications, there are even more materials out there designed for very specific niches in mind.

Chinese spark plug manufacturers adhere to stringent quality control measures to ensure that their products meet industry standards and specifications. Advanced manufacturing processes, precision engineering, and rigorous testing protocols are employed to produce high-quality spark plugs that deliver reliable performance and durability. Manufacturers prioritize material quality, heat resistance, and electrode design to optimize the spark plug's ignition capabilities and longevity.
The sealing lip of the RST-D is more heavy-duty, so it can cope with pressures of up to 10 bar at slightly lower rotation speeds.
The oil pan seal, also known as the oil pan gasket, is a critical component in an automobile's engine system. It is responsible for sealing the oil pan to the engine block, preventing oil leaks and ensuring the proper lubrication of the engine. The seal oil pan plays a crucial role in maintaining the oil pressure and preventing the loss of lubricating oil, which is essential for the smooth operation and longevity of the engine.

Sump gaskets are usually in several pieces, often with separate curved seals that fit under the front and rear main-bearing housings of the crankshaft.
