1. Basic functions of oil seals
Oil seals are used to prevent lubricating oil leakage and external contaminants from entering, and are widely used in rotating shafts of mechanical equipment.
2. Dimensions
Inner diameter (ID): 40mm, matching the shaft diameter.
Outer diameter (OD): 46mm, matching the housing aperture.
Thickness (Width): 17.5mm, determines the installation space.
3. Materials and types
Material: commonly used nitrile rubber (NBR), fluororubber (FKM), etc., depending on the working environment.
Type: single lip or double lip, single lip prevents oil leakage, double lip has dustproof function.
4. Installation and maintenance
Installation: Make sure the shaft and housing are clean to avoid damage to the oil seal.
Maintenance: Check regularly and replace worn oil seals in time.
