The first step in installing oil seals is to clean the surface where they will be placed. Dirt, debris, and other contaminants can cause the oil seal to become damaged or misshapen, leading to leaks. Clean the surface with a solvent or soap and water, and make sure it is completely dry before installing the oil seal.
Antioxidants: Antioxidant additives work to slow oxidation and the forming of deposits in motor oil. They also help keep the engine clean and extend the life of the motor oil.

O-rings, which are also referred to as oil seal rings or oil ring seals, are designed to join two parts and ensure that no air, moisture, or gas is allowed to pass through. They are usually inserted into a groove and manufactured to resist pressure. The resistance is what stops foreign elements from entering or leaving the joining.
Fluid Types - Various oil seals are able to withstand interactions with oils, fuels, grease, water and more. Knowing what type of fluid the rotary shaft seal will be in constant contact with will ensure the longevity of the seal and surrounding components.
