The temperature range of nitrile is −35° to 120 °C (−30° to 250 °F). Due to this wide range, NBR seals can be used for gas oil, silicone oil, animal/vegetable oils and fat, hydraulic liquid as well as hot and cold water. In addition, NBR is oil resistant and has an excellent abrasion resistance, so for any application that demands shock absorbers, NBR is a perfect choice to go with.
An oil seal is a device used to prevent dirt, dust, water, or any other foreign matter from contaminating shafts and bearings in the rotary shaft equipment. Also known as a shaft seal or dirt seal, it also blocks the leakage of lubricants such as grease and oil along a rotating shaft.

OIL SEAL (LIP SEAL) VS. MECHANICAL SEAL: PROS & CONS OF EACH
Seals perform best when they are lubricated, however, some machines quickly go on dry spells. So, in cases like this, choosing a leather or PTFE seal is the right decision to make as both of them can function with less lubrication than other types of seals.
