- Proper installation and maintenance of valve oil seals are essential for ensuring the longevity and performance of an engine. Over time, valve oil seals can wear out or become damaged, leading to oil leaks and other issues. Regular inspection and replacement of valve oil seals as needed can help to prevent these problems and keep the engine running smoothly.
There may be a rubber '0' ring oil seal round the base of the distributor, or a paper gasket under the plate of the securing clamp. Remove either seal, clean away all dirt and oil, and fit the new one.
The dimensions of the 25x47x7 oil seal refer to its inner diameter, outer diameter, and thickness, respectively. These measurements are important in ensuring a proper fit for the seal in the machine or engine it is intended for. By providing a secure seal between moving parts, the oil seal helps to maintain proper lubrication in the machine and prevent the loss of oil.
How to Choose the Right Oil Seal
Metal O.D. wall type (with a reinforcing inner metal case) Protects the main lip.

Why use NOK-CN factory-made oil seals?




Spring
ERIKS type R (type A according to the DIN standard) is identical in shape to type M, but has a rubber outer case with metal reinforcement on the inside. The rubber creates a good seal in the housing, even if the housing has suffered minor damage or is not in its best condition for other reasons. The RST version has a dust lip. These types are often chosen to replace a type with a metal outer case because they are easier to install and can cope with minor damage to the groove, such as scratches.
Oil seal materials
PTFE Oil Seals - A relatively new and exciting oil seal, the use of polytetrafluoroethylene means that they can withstand dry or unlubricated operations. With a massive thermal range of -130ºC to +200ºC and a strong resistance to chemicals, they are considered to be the future of rotary shaft seals.

The sealing lip is always made of a rubber or synthetic material. For oil seals with a rubber outer case (R, RST, GR, GRST), the rubber quality of the sealing lip and the outer case are the same.
