What Is an Oil Seal?
An oil seal is a mechanical component designed to prevent the leakage of fluids, such as oil or grease, from machinery parts. They’re also known as rotary shaft seals or lip seals and they work by closing the gap between a rotating shaft and stationary housing. They’re often used in applications like engines, pumps and gearboxes to protect against damage from dirt or grease.
What Are the Benefits of Oil Seals?
Oil seals provide various advantages: they prevent contamination, reduce wear and tear on equipment and minimise maintenance costs. All of these factors extend the life of equipment and reduce the risk of downtime.
When Should You Change an Oil Seal?
You should replace oil seals when there are visible signs of wear, leakage or damage. To test when you need to replace the oil seal, carry out regular inspections to prevent machinery failure and costly repairs. This will keep your equipment running efficiently and safely.
How to Measure an Oil Seal?
Oil seals should have stamped numbers, which usually represent the dimensions in a specific order. If not, you’ll have to use a calliper or ruler to take the measurements of the inner and outer diameter, as well as the width of the seal. As a leading oil seal supplier in the UK, our team can guide you in choosing the right size for optimal performance.
