Oil seals, also referred to as shaft seals, are widely used to prevent the leakage of medium (such as oils and grease) along a rotating shaft. This leak prevention is primarily achieved by the sealing element which can be made from a wide range of materials that are chosen according to each application. They are commonly used in gearboxes, hydraulic cylinders, and related components.

Many oil seals are capable of resisting contact with grease, fuel, water, and other elements. Knowing what type of fluid the seal will interact with will help you choose the right oil seal that can withstand those types of fluids.

(5) The surface finish of the shaft directly affects the service life of the oil seal, that is, the higher the shaft finish, the longer the service life of the oil seal.
