The most common oil seals are the ERIKS types R, RST, M and MST, which correspond respectively to types A, AS, B and BS according to DIN 3760/ISO 6194.

(7) Special attention should be paid to prevent dust from immersing in the oil seal.

Areas of application of this rubber are suggested by its outstanding temperature resistance (-55 °C to +200 °C), although this must not be applied to hot water or steam. Although silicone rubber almost matches NBR in oil resistance, it does not match the latter's physical and mechanical properties.  

Silicone and rubber gaskets offer numerous advantages, including resistance to temperature extremes, chemicals, and environmental factors. Their flexibility and resilience allow for effective sealing in dynamic and challenging conditions. Additionally, these gaskets provide vibration dampening, noise reduction, and electrical insulation, making them valuable components in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.

Oil seals increasingly had to meet higher requirements, which is why PTFE was developed in 1980. This variant can better withstand higher engine speeds, higher oil temperatures, longer oil intervals and modern lubricants. In addition, the oil seal contains a wider contact surface, which ensures less wear.
