| Oil
Seals and Shaft Seals |
Oil Seals or Shaft seals
are used on shafts or axles that rotate clockwise or anti-clockwise.
They are fitted in housings with low different pressures.
The sealing element elastomer, like sleeve and the metal
stiffening ring case, both of which are vulcanized together
and in the radial direction, the flex section ends in a
lip, on which annular spiral tension spring is inserted.
The function of a oil seal or shaft seal is to prevent or
minimise the leakage of oil or other media between a moving
shaft and a stationary component. The design made on the
oil seal vary in wide range. A different style could provide
a differential sealing efficiency.
The design of an oil seal will also determine the maximum
pressure it can withstand. Oil seal dimensions are determined
by its shaft Diameter (d), Bore Diameter (D) and Seal Height
(h).
