'Slanted Column Bracing' is a less conventional approach, where the bracing members are integrated into the structure's vertical columns
- However, it's crucial to note that the benefits of Turbo Spark Plugs are maximized when used in conjunction with a well-tuned engine and proper maintenance. Installing them in a poorly maintained or unsuitable engine might not yield the desired results.
INTEGRATED OIL SEALS
- An oil seal, as the name suggests, is designed primarily to prevent the leakage of oil while also keeping contaminants out. The 14x24x6 specification denotes its size, indicating that it has an inner diameter of 14mm, an outer diameter of 24mm, and a thickness of 6mm. These measurements are critical as they ensure a precise fit within the machinery's designated housing, ensuring optimal performance.


A standard oil seal consists of an outer circular metal disk with an inner flexible rubber which is affixed to the metal during vulcanization. The bonded seal has no loose parts to allow leakage of oil or ingress of any contaminants. This kind of seal is more accurate, and can easily be fitted into a smaller space. An example is shown in Figure 2.9.
Oil seals go by many names, such as shaft seals, dirt seals, grease seals, lip seals, and many other variations of these. They are essentially simple devices used in rotary shaft equipment to prevent lubricant from escaping and for excluding contaminants such as dust, dirt and water. An oil seal’s most important function, however, is that it protects every type of ball, sleeve and roller bearing in the rotating shafts. The seals also prevent the integration of two different fluids that shouldn’t mix, such as oil and water.
These seals are designed to fit snugly around the shaft of the machine, preventing oil from leaking out while also keeping dirt, dust, and other contaminants from entering.
Have you found the right oil seal for your application? The next step is a precise and error-free assembly, so that the oil seal is fitted without being damaged. If you are replacing an existing oil seal, you must first disassemble it with the same care and precision. In this article, you will read all about the different steps of an appropriate (dis)assembly process that contributes to optimal operation within the application.
