Oil seals are protective elements. They prevent the mixing of water and lubricants within a machine, thereby ensuring optimal machine functionality. Also, oil seals help to prevent lubricant leakage at high pressure like when the machine is working at an extremely high rate. Not only that, radial shaft seals stop foreign components from entering a machine. This is because they can contaminate the lubricant and even damage the machine.

Due to having a higher density, Viton has the widest temperature range of -40°F to over 400°F (-40°C to over 240°C) making it a perfect choice for higher temperature applications. Viton® also has the largest range of chemical resistance, i.e., it is resistant to silicone oil and grease, mineral/vegetable oil and grease, aliphatic, aromatic, and chlorinated hydrocarbons, non-flammable hydraulic fuels as well methanol fuels, and more.
 

An oil seal serves three crucial purposes within any machinery. First, it prevents the leakage of lubricants or fluids outside the seal, even under high pressure. This function ensures the effective operation of equipment, as sufficient lubrication is a key requirement for the smooth functioning of machinery. Second, it retains the lubricating oil within the machinery. This retention function reduces the need for constant maintenance or re-lubrication, saving time and resources. Third, the oil seal acts as a barrier against contaminants. It prevents dirt, dust, and other potential contaminants from entering the machinery, protecting sensitive parts from damage or wear.
