- Oil Seals which are also known as rotary shaft seals are used to prevent lubricants from leaking and escaping. They protect key components of the machinery from being damaged from various fluids, dirt and dust from getting inside the machines. Oil Seals are a vital component in preventing harmful interactions between moving and static parts. Without using them you could cause expensive damage and halt whole operations. Using our 6 Guidelines for oil seals will help your buying decision. You can read about the different Oil Seals we stock here.

Before Installation

Many – too numerous to list, covering a vast range of designs, sizes, and materials suitable for a never-ending range of applications. Some designs conform to International Standards such as BS1399 and DIN 3760 for metric sizes and seal types, but the majority have been manufactured to suit particular applications – hence the enormous selection available. This blog is intended to assist in this selection and will consider seal type, materials, and sizes.
Longer seal life can be expected with shafts having a Rockwell (RC) hardness of 30 or more. When exposed to abrasive contamination, the hardness should be increased to RC 60.
Lever the seal out with a screwdriver, working carefully to avoid scoring the seal housing.
There are several materials used to manufacture oil seals. They are discussed below.

Regular inspection and maintenance of engine oil seals, power steering oil seals, and motor oil seals are essential to identify signs of wear, damage, or leakage. Proper lubrication and adherence to recommended service intervals can help extend the lifespan of these seals. When replacement is necessary, selecting the correct seal type and ensuring proper installation are critical to maintaining the integrity and performance of the vehicle's systems.
