Oil seals, also referred to as shaft seals, are widely used to prevent the leakage of medium (such as oils and grease) along a rotating shaft. This leak prevention is primarily achieved by the sealing element which can be made from a wide range of materials that are chosen according to each application. They are commonly used in gearboxes, hydraulic cylinders, and related components.
A wide range of sealing devices are used in various machines.
Sealing devices serve the following functions:
The valve cover gasket plays a critical role in maintaining the integrity of the engine by preventing oil leaks and maintaining proper lubrication.
