Nitrile oil seals are resistant to acids and hydrocarbons and can withstand temperatures between -40°C and +135°C. They are used in rail, automotive, mining, marine and pumping applications.

Viton oil seals are normally more durable than nitrile seals; they can withstand higher temperatures and are resistant to fats, salt, petrol and diesel. Viton has a lower risk of catching fire and is less susceptible to decay under high oxygen conditions.

The benefits of opting for a rotary shaft seal are:

  • Prevents leaks, so the product isn’t wasted
  • Avoids contamination, so protects workforces
  • Large sealing surface for sturdy, longer-lasting protection
  • Flexible
  • Simple installation
  • Cost-effective
  • Easy to clean and maintain

Oil seals are used in every type of machine to protect ball bearings, sleeve bearings, roller bearings and more. They are typically used in driveshafts, crankshafts and hydraulic cylinders where the rotating shaft is lubricated. Some examples of oil seal applications are:

  • Vehicles
  • Machinery
  • Manufacturing
  • Oil refineries
  • Power transmission
  • Steel rolling mills
  • Gearboxes
  • High speeds, eccentric shafts
