Replacing gaskets and oil seals


PTFE, which is used in the well-known brand Teflon®, is less commonly used, but it is the preferred material for specific rotating seals in the chemical, food and pharmaceutical industries. This material is notable for having a very low frictional resistance and the best chemical resistance. It can also withstand a very wide range of temperatures in these types of seals; -80 ˚C to 200 ˚C. The shafts on which oil seals with PTFE lips are used require a harder and finer finish. Something like an axle sleeve can also be used to meet this requirement.

Choosing the wrong materials for an oil seal may result in premature wear, lip hardening, cracks, swelling, and subsequent expensive damage to the machinery in which the seal is used. It is therefore vital to gather all relevant data and consult with experts before purchasing to match the right type of oil seal with your application.
