There are several key factors to consider when you are selecting the oil seals for your next project to ensure that you protect your machinery from immediate and long-term damage.
Another critical factor to consider is the type of seal most suitable for particular machinery. When selecting your mechanical sealing solution, assess your machine’s shaft speed, temperature, pressure, environment, and the medium coming into contact with the seal during an operation. These factors help determine the color, size, sealing element, lip material to choose from, and if it can be sealed out or sealed in.
