- a. Carbon Steel – the most common material used in oil seals.
- The valve cover gasket's primary function is to prevent oil from seeping out of the engine and into areas where it could cause damage or compromise efficiency. A leaky valve cover gasket can lead to oil loss, which in turn can cause engine damage due to insufficient lubrication. Furthermore, oil dripping onto hot engine components can ignite, posing a fire hazard.
Start the engine and check for oil leaks round the sump flange. Stop the engine and tighten the mountings.
Type - Oil seals, often made from high-quality rubber compounds or synthetic materials, are designed to prevent the leakage of lubricants while inhibiting the ingress of contaminants. The 8 in the name likely refers to the percentage of oil-resistant material used in the seal's construction, enhancing its ability to withstand exposure to various oils and lubricants without degradation.
- The Oil Seal 20x35x7, as its name suggests, denotes its dimensions - a nominal inside diameter of 20mm, an outer diameter of 35mm, and a thickness of 7mm. This precise measurement is critical, as it ensures a snug fit in the targeted housing, preventing any possible leaks or contamination from entering the system. It acts as a barrier, keeping oil within the lubrication system where it's needed, while simultaneously keeping dirt, debris, and other contaminants out.
- The efficiency and longevity of a spark plug motor largely depend on the quality and condition of the spark plugs. They need to be clean, properly gapped, and firing consistently to ensure optimal performance. Regular maintenance, including replacing worn or dirty spark plugs, can significantly enhance fuel economy and reduce emissions.
The major cause of extrusion and nibbling is stress caused by high pressure. This is commonly noticed when the oil seal has a chipped or nibbled look. In fact, in some cases, the surface of the seal tends to peel on its own, which makes it have a shaved look. What the stress does is that it increases the clearance gap between the mating edges, which causes the seal to get entrapped, and then leads to severe physical damage.
- Moreover, die-cut silicone gaskets are known for their excellent electrical insulation properties. They protect electrical connections from environmental factors, ensuring safe and efficient operation in electronic devices and equipment. This feature, coupled with their resistance to ozone and UV radiation, makes them a popular choice for outdoor applications.

Most conventional oil seals are designed only to withstand very low-pressure applications (about 8 psi or less). If additional internal pressure is present or anticipated, pressure relief is necessary.

u shaped rubber gasket. The U shape of the gasket creates a compression seal when it is installed, ensuring that no air or liquid can escape from the sealed area. This tight seal helps to prevent leaks, reduce energy loss, and protect sensitive equipment from environmental contaminants.


The sealing element makes up the interior of the oil seal, and the materials commonly used are:
