There are several materials used to manufacture oil seals. They are discussed below.

Oil seals are integral components in a range of machinery and equipment, playing a vital role in keeping lubricants in, contaminants out, and machinery operating efficiently. Understanding the design, materials, and selection factors of oil seals can help you make an informed choice regarding your industrial needs. The reliability, longevity, and efficiency the right oil seal can bring to your machinery is priceless.
