These oil seals are the best for applications involving high temperatures. It’s suitable for temperatures between -4 degrees Fahrenheit and 392 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, it’s highly resistant to acids, dissolvent materials, and other chemicals. Viton (FKM/FPM) oil seals can run at a maximum speed of 38 m/s.

Both sealing types are popularly used in different mechanical engineering applications. How are they different? The article explains the fundamental working mechanism of both categories of seals.

Dynamic seals called bearing isolators are used to shield bearings from external impurities. They are revolving (rotor) and stationary (stator) elements. O-rings or strong seals are used in some bearing isolators, while they are constructed like labyrinths in others.
