5. Install New Seals Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installing the new seals. Ensure they are seated correctly and aligned to prevent leaks.

The 40% - 80% - 10% Principle

An oil seal, often referred to as a fluid seal, is a device that seals the interface between two components, preventing the leakage of oils or lubricants. Oil seals are typically made from elastomeric materials that provide flexibility, resilience, and resistance to wear and tear. They are essential for ensuring the proper functioning of machinery by minimizing contamination from external elements and retaining lubricants within the system.

The first figure, 22%, typically refers to the efficiency rate of a sealing system. In many mechanical applications, oil seals operate under various conditions and stresses. A 22% efficiency rating means that seals must be capable of withstanding fluctuations in temperature and pressure, ensuring that the lubricating oil remains contained. A higher efficiency rate often translates to a longer lifespan for machinery, thus saving costs in maintenance and potential downtime.

Operating conditions such as the engine’s temperature, position, size, pressure and shaft speed largely determine which individual oil seal composition is most suitable for every individual application.
