Everything you need to know about oil seals
All the units of the car are interconnected. Because of this, the vehicle is a single mechanism in which every spare part is important. One of the first problems faced by the original ICE developers was how to minimize lubricant leakage where the shaft left the unit housing. What is oil seal Oil seal is a sealing element installed at the joint of various mechanisms and rotating shafts. In addition, similar parts are installed on parts that perform reciprocating motions to prevent oil leakage between the moving elements and the body of the mechanism. Regardless of design and use, the device is in the form of a ring with compression springs. The parts can come in different sizes or be made of different materials. Working principle and device The oil seal is enclosed in a housing through which the mechanical shaft passes. The inside of the case has sealing material. It is located on all sides of the shaft that will come out of the unit body, such as a motor or gearbox. The diameter of
