The oil seal is a component that guarantees the tightness of lubricating products , capable of tolerating axial rotation or axial sliding movements. Composed of a metallic structure that provides resistance and stability to the component, and a coating compound and a lip that guarantees the best sealing (possibly assisted by a spring), the oil seal finds application in all contexts where it is necessary to have a perfect seal of oils, fats and similar products around the rotating axes. But what materials can oil seals be used for , and in particular for the State lip ? And why can the Viton oil seal represent one of the best standards in the field?
Sealing lip materials
Among the main materials used in the production of sealing lips, nitrile is certainly one of the most common, suitable for most applications and capable – as a rule – of tolerating a fairly wide range of temperatures, between – 35 degrees and + 125 degrees. If you prefer (or need) to have a material of higher quality and versatility, you can use the elastomer silicone lip that is particularly resistant to lower temperatures (up to -65 degrees) or higher temperatures (+170 degrees).
Viton oil seal
However, those who want to have the best quality levels can only resort to the use of Viton Oil Seal , a highly valuable fluorinated elastomer, which can resist temperatures of up to + 240 degrees and, in addition, guarantees an excellent ability to handle with oils, acids and other substances that can be deteriorated by nitrites or silicones. It is therefore a high quality choice, with excellent performance capable of lasting over time .
As can be imagined, given the quality and use characteristics that are far superior to those of “competitors”, the Viton Oil Seal is characterized by a higher price: however, this is an additional cost largely offset by the greater quality, stability and reference performance, and which could therefore constitute the ideal option in all contexts where there is a need to have access to a top-of-the-range material, which does not fear contact with substances that can lead to the rapid alteration of nitrites and silicones.
