Types of oil seals

First, an elastomer, most often nitrile, is vulcanised to a metal ring. This creates a stiffening effect that includes a specialised metal tension spring directly behind the sealing lip, keeping the oil seal firmly in place against the moving part.

Regular inspection and maintenance of rubber valve cover gaskets are essential to identify signs of wear, damage, or leakage. Proper replacement of worn or damaged gaskets is crucial for maintaining the integrity and performance of the engine. Adhering to recommended service intervals and using high-quality replacement components are essential for optimizing the performance and longevity of the vehicle's engine.

The care taken during the installation process will pay off by allowing the seal to work quietly and operate efficiently behind the scenes of your application.
