- Mechanical oil seals are essential components in machinery and equipment that require the containment of fluids such as oil and grease. These seals prevent leakage of these fluids and ensure that the equipment operates smoothly and efficiently.
- A shock absorber oil seal, as the name suggests, serves as a barrier between the internal lubricating oil and the exterior environment. It prevents oil from leaking out and contaminants from entering the shock absorber, ensuring optimal damping performance. Without a functional oil seal, the shock absorber's efficiency is greatly reduced, leading to a rough ride, increased tire wear, and potentially, loss of vehicle control.
- The primary function of an oil seal is to prevent the loss of oil from the sealed system while allowing the free movement of the shaft or other rotating components. This is achieved through the use of a flexible material that conforms to the surface of the shaft and creates a tight seal. The material used in oil seals is typically a synthetic rubber or a thermoplastic, which provides excellent resistance to heat, oil, and other chemicals commonly found in machinery environments.
1. What are oil seals?
Never use a used seal in another project as it may develop defects such as cracks or bubbles in the seal lip previously used.
When you start the actual installation make sure that the oil seal is always facing the right direction. So, not facing outwards, but always with the spring facing the side of the medium to be sealed. The oil seal must then be pressed into the bore. Use appropriate tools, such as a bearing fitting tool set, to ensure that this is done evenly. The oil seal must never be forcefully hammered into the bore.
