Figure 2: Typically shaped oil seal and component nomenclature
In addition to their durability, TC oil seals are also known for their excellent sealing properties. They effectively prevent the leakage of oil and other fluids, even under extreme conditions. This helps to reduce the risk of equipment failure and downtime, ensuring smooth and efficient operation.If there are curved seals, fit these to the engine. Smear sealant on the seal groove, stick the seal in place, and apply a blob of sealant to each end of the seal where it joins the gasket.

Our standard and custom rubber oil seals can match the increasingly demanding applications of any industry.
Oil Seal Turbo The Heart of Efficiency and PerformanceWhen deciding on the best type of seal for a particular application, it is best to consider all aspects of the environment and its purpose. If the application requires a spring- loaded seal, that does not eliminate either the rotary shaft seal or the mechanical seal. If the equipment is operating in extreme temperatures, including situations where the rapid movement of the equipment creates extreme heat, a mechanical seal will hold up better than an oil seal.
