The major cause of extrusion and nibbling is stress caused by high pressure. This is commonly noticed when the oil seal has a chipped or nibbled look. In fact, in some cases, the surface of the seal tends to peel on its own, which makes it have a shaved look. What the stress does is that it increases the clearance gap between the mating edges, which causes the seal to get entrapped, and then leads to severe physical damage.
Viton Oil Seals - A synthetic rubber and fluoropolymer elastomer, Viton is used to make oil seals that provide resistance in both high temperature, up to 250°C and low compression set components. They also offer a high resistance to chemicals and abrasions, so they can be used in elements that regularly interact with petroleum and solvents.
The oil gasket is typically made of a durable material such as rubber or silicone that can withstand the high temperatures and pressures found in an engine. Over time, however, the gasket can wear out and become damaged, leading to oil leaks and other problems. It is important to regularly inspect the oil gasket and replace it if necessary to ensure the proper functioning of the engine.Also known as a Rotary Shaft Seal, Shaft Seal, Lip Seal, Elastomeric Lip Seal or any variation of these. It is a simple device for excluding dust, dirt, water or any other contaminant whilst retaining lubricant in rotary shaft equipment. Generally, it has been developed as a means of protecting the bearings of rotating shafts.
The Indispensable Role of Rubber Edge Gaskets in Modern IndustryOil seals are used in a great many devices for steel production equipment.
