- Mechanical face seals, also known as floating-face or heavy-duty face-type seals, are typically used in more demanding applications where high pressures and extreme temperatures are present. They consist of two metal rings with flat faces that are held together by springs and form a dynamic seal between them.

Storage and Handling
Operating temperatures for engine oil seals (see Fig. 14.11 and cross-section of lip seal with garter spring in Fig. 14.22) vary widely, depending on engine design and location within the engine. Typically, the rear crankshaft seal is subjected to much higher temperatures than the front seal. Oil sump temperatures vary considerably, depending on provisions for oil cooling. This allows use of hydrogenated nitrile (HNBR), silicone, or acrylic elastomers for some seals in relatively low-temperature environments (120–140°C or 250–284°F). Standard fluoroelastomers (FKM), bisphenol-cured VDF/HFP/TFE terpolymers with 68–69% fluorine content, perform well in oil service up to about 160°C (320°F). More resistant fluoroelastomers are necessary for reliable long-term performance in more severe environments.
In conclusion, wheel hub oil seals and steering oil seals are essential components in automotive systems, contributing to the efficiency, safety, and reliability of the vehicle. Understanding the significance of these seals and their proper maintenance is crucial for optimizing the performance and longevity of the wheel hubs and steering mechanisms.
