The hydrodynamic ribsa) provided in one direction on the air side face of the lip ensure higher sealing performance. Perfect Seal The hydrodynamic ribsa) provided in two directions on the air side face of the lip ensure higher sealing performance (higher sealing performance in both rotational directions of the shaft).
Special exceptions still apply within the Volkswagen group. With PTFE oil seals, an aluminium or plastic housing is used in many different engine series. The Top Dead Centre (TDC) signal is no longer measured at the flywheel, but directly using a sensor on the rear crankshaft flange and integrated sensor in the oil seal.

ERIKS
Oil seals come in a vast range of materials and compounds. Even older materials, such leather, are still used today. Nitrile is among the most common materials for oil seals but is slowly losing ground to PTFE, which is gaining popularity due to its effectiveness in high-speed applications.
