- Polyacrylate. Polyacrylate is a good combination of quality and cost benefits. It is highly resistant to oxidation and heated oil, withstanding temperatures from -25° F to 300° F. This material has applications in vehicle transmissions, shaft seals, O-rings, and more.
Some aspects to consider when selecting this component are:
- Replacing a B18B1 valve cover gasket is a task that should not be overlooked by any car owner. It requires careful removal of the valve cover, cleaning of the mating surfaces, and the installation of a new gasket to ensure a tight seal. Using high-quality gaskets and adhering to the manufacturer's guidelines during replacement is crucial for maintaining optimal engine performance.

Types of Materials Used for Manufacturing Oil Seals
1) Shaft design

Regular maintenance and inspection of shaft oil seals are essential to ensure their proper functioning and prevent costly downtime and repairs. Signs of a worn or damaged seal include oil leaks, increased noise or vibration, and decreased efficiency. If any of these symptoms are detected, it is important to replace the seal promptly to avoid further damage to the machinery.
A shaft’s surface finishing will determine how effective the sealing will be. The spiral lead and the direction of the finish tool marks have an impact on the sealing effectiveness. Therefore, it’s imperative to ensure that the shaft surface finishing is maintained.
Whether the seal is a standard product or a custom solution, our engineers ensure that the seal is specified for your application.
These oil seals are the best for applications involving high temperatures. It’s suitable for temperatures between -4 degrees Fahrenheit and 392 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, it’s highly resistant to acids, dissolvent materials, and other chemicals. Viton (FKM/FPM) oil seals can run at a maximum speed of 38 m/s.
There is a little leakage as the fluid vapors get released into the atmosphere from the faces of the seal, though. Since the quantity is hardly quantifiable, the seals are considered leak proof.
