Step 3 Remove Old Seals

The dimensions of the 14x24x6 oil seal indicate its internal diameter (14 mm), external diameter (24 mm), and the thickness (6 mm). These measurements are critical as they ensure a proper fit within the machinery where the seal is installed. The correct sizing of an oil seal is paramount; if the seal is too small, it will not provide an effective barrier, resulting in fluid leakage. Conversely, if it is too large, it may not fit securely, allowing dirt and debris to enter the system.

In addition to preventing fluid loss, oil seals also protect machinery from external contaminants such as dust, dirt, and moisture. These particles can cause significant damage if they enter the inner workings of equipment. The presence of a well-functioning oil seal eliminates this risk, fostering a clean operational environment.

- Dust Seals These seals act as the first line of defense against external contaminants. They are located outside the cylinder and help keep dirt and debris from entering the hydraulic system.

One of the key benefits of using hydraulic piston oil seals is their ability to reduce friction and wear on the piston and cylinder wall. As the piston moves back and forth within the cylinder, the oil seal creates a tight barrier that minimizes contact between the two surfaces. This not only improves the efficiency of the hydraulic system but also extends the lifespan of the piston and other components.
