Crankshaft front seal
Choosing the correct type for your application
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.
Silicone
Wide temperature range
Commonly used in low temperature applications
Very prone to mechanical damage during fitting- Another key advantage of U-shaped rubber gaskets is their ability to provide a tight seal
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. - One of the standout features of the SSR 125 spark plug is its fine-tuned heat range
- Furthermore, TC oil seals are designed to provide low friction and long service life. The smooth surface of the sealing lips minimizes wear and heat generation, ensuring efficient operation and reduced maintenance costs. With proper installation and periodic inspection, TC oil seals can last for thousands of hours without needing replacement.
- Environmental Factors: Consider external factors such as exposure to dirt, water, and other contaminants, temperature fluctuations, chemical exposure, and shaft speed. For example, oil seals that must withstand high-speed rotational motion, high-pressure conditions, or extreme temperatures require more durable and resilient materials.
- Moreover, a compromised valve cover gasket can allow debris and moisture to enter the engine, leading to corrosion or even engine failure in extreme cases
