Choosing the right oil seal

In this blog, we attempt to highlight what are Oil Seals and the various Rotary Shaft Seals including Mechanical Face Seals, Water Pump Seals, Gland Packings, and V-Seals that are readily available.
The oil seal is generally composed of three basic components: sealing element, metal shell and clamping spring.Types of oil seals include single and double lips, rubber or polymer, metal housing, spring loaded, and internal, external and axial guides.

The durometer of an oil seal is typically dependent on the material it is made with. Common oil seal materials along with their durometers are as follows:

Oil seals play a vital role in the efficient operation of machinery and equipment by preventing the leakage of oil or other fluids. One commonly used type of oil seal is the 65x90x10 oil seal, which is designed to fit a specific shaft size of 65mm, an outer diameter of 90mm, and a thickness of 10mm. These seals are typically made from rubber or other flexible materials that can withstand the harsh conditions often found in machinery.
