This represents a new generation of oil seals.
This is a specific type of synthetic rubber that’s commonly used in o-rings, gaskets, oil seals, sterile & chemical resistant gloves, and other molded items. Viton has a high density and it possesses the widest temperature range of -40 degrees Fahrenheit to more than 400 degrees Fahrenheit. This is why it’s highly preferred as the best material for higher temperature applications.

Seals are classified by O.D. wall material, lip type, and whether they have a spring or not.
Major oil seals are specified in ISO 6194-1 and JIS B 2402-1.
Table 2 shows the common types of oil seals, while Table 3 shows the features of each type of oil seal.
Table 4 lists the JTEKT oil seal type codes and corresponding ISO and JIS standards.
Oil seals keep contaminants separate from the lubricants that keep rotating shafts and precision bearings in good working order. Oil seals are also known as rotary shaft seals, lip seals, and shaft seals.
The Oil Seal 30x52x10 is designed with a radial lip design, which provides effective sealing against oil leakage. It features a nitrile rubber (NBR) lip material, known for its high resistance to oil and heat, making it suitable for use in harsh operating conditions. The seal also has a steel backing, which enhances its strength and stability, ensuring long-lasting performance.Oil seals, also known as grease seals or shaft seals, are essential components in many machines and systems. They play a crucial role in preventing the leakage of oil and other lubricants, ensuring the smooth and efficient operation of various mechanical parts.
J: Additional code is added here as an identifier when two or more seals have exactly the same type codes and dimensional numbers.
It is crucial to understand that oil seals, like any other mechanical component, are subject to failure over time. The key to minimizing downtime and enhancing operational efficiency is recognizing the signs of oil seal failure and understanding its reasons. Here are some common failure modes:
Leather oil seals are commonly used for parts that are exposed to dirt and poor lubrication. The major advantage of this material is that it can function in cases where synthetic rubber cannot function. They are used for shafts that have rough surfaces that are more than what rubber seals can handle. This is because they are pre-lubricated and have the capacity to absorb liquids.
