How to Measure and Identify Oil Seals

Replacing critical components can be difficult to do correctly, especially if you don't have the original machine specifications. Thankfully, there are several ways to identify   oil seals ; from their design, size and material. Since there are hundreds of different oil seals on the market, this guide will cover the four most common design types. Single Lip vs. Double Lip First, the oil seals covered in this guide categorize a single lip as the inside diameter of the bottom of the assembly. The single lip contains oil, grease or lubricant and is critical to the function of the seal. The only difference between a single lip and a double lip is the additional rubber lip on the top of the oil seal that helps keep dirt or grime from getting close to the shaft.  The identification of the oil seal lip may be misinterpreted by visual inspection only. Or for this reason, you should press along the inside diameter of the top of the oil seal and if you feel a slight bulge or a slight movemen

Importance of Quality Selection about Oil Seals

Modern transmissions work hard, so shouldn't their oil seals do the same? Poor quality seals are one of the top reasons for diagnosing transmission fluid leaks, and it can damage the unit beyond repair. In a running automotive system, you should never underestimate the value of a well-made   oil seal .   In today's article, we'll discuss the importance of quality selection when it comes to transmission oil seals. Causes and Effects A transmission may contain dozens of seal components, all with a specific purpose. If even one of these seals fails, the transmission in the vehicle will begin to leak transmission fluid. However, a leaking transmission is not a simple problem in itself; a leaking seal can quickly lead to many other problems, including a complete transmission burnout. Static seals, such as a simple  O-ring ,  fit between two stationary parts, while more complex dynamic seals have multiple lips that act as a barrier between stationary and moving parts. Over time,
