For many bearings, a good bearing seal is essential. Bearing seals perform a dual function by keeping lubricants from leaking out while preventing impurities from entering your parts. Both procedures can help your bearings last longer, but choosing the proper seals for your components is critical. Different types of bearing seals include:
- 2. Monitor engine temperature A damaged or worn gasket can cause the engine to overheat. Keep an eye on the temperature gauge on your dashboard and address any overheating issues promptly.
- Spring: spiral shaped, ensures constant pressure and maintains the optimal force to the shaft.
Cassette seals are designed to maximise grease or oil retention and protection against liquid or solid contaminants. These seals are provided with their own bushings in which dirt is kept out and oil/grease kept in by a multi-lip seal.

What is Oil Seal


In our cutting edge technology centers in the Netherlands, the USA and the UK, we design and develop specific and custom-made rubber sealing parts for many industries.
Before fitting the oil seal, it is essential to check that the oil seal, shaft and bore are clean and undamaged. The surfaces the oil seal will come into contact with must be free of sharp points or burrs. The sealing lip is fragile, so even minimal damage can cause a leak. It is also important that the shaft and bore are correctly finished.
