    How to Select the Right Bearing (Part 7): Components surrounding the bearing

  • In conclusion, die-cut rubber gaskets play a critical role in sealing applications across different industries, providing a reliable and cost-effective solution for preventing leakage, contamination, and wear. Their versatility, durability, and customizability make them an indispensable component in mechanical systems, machinery, and equipment. With advancements in technology and materials, die-cut rubber gaskets continue to evolve and adapt to meet the changing needs and challenges of modern industries.
  • Oil seals are widely used as sealing devices for machines.

    JTEKT's oil seals are described in our catalog, Oil Seals & O-Rings.
    However, the catalog uses a large number of technical terms and is very long, so many people seem to have trouble handling it.

    Therefore, this series of columns will summarize the following in order:
    • The structure, functions, and types of oil seals
    • How to select the right 
    oil seal
    • Handling of seals, and causes and countermeasures for oil seal failure

  • Silicone Rubber (SI): A popular choice for its resistance to low and high temperatures (-58 to 356°F, or -50 to 180°C). Silicone rubber has high lubricant absorbency, which reduces friction and wear, making it ideal for crankshaft seals. However, it is unsuitable for oxidized or hypnoid oils due to its poor resistance to hydrolysis.

  • Proper maintenance is essential for the longevity and performance of metallic oil seals. Regular inspection of the seal for signs of wear, damage, or leaks is recommended. If any issues are detected, the seal should be replaced immediately to prevent further damage to the system. It is also important to ensure that the shaft or housing surfaces are clean and free of any contaminants that may compromise the seal's performance.
  • The process of replacing spark plugs is not as complicated as it may seem, and can typically be done at home with basic tools, provided you have the correct information and a little mechanical know-how. However, always refer to your owner's manual for specific instructions tailored to your vehicle model.
  • The functionality of an oil seal is predicated on its ability to create a tight seal between two moving parts, such as a shaft and a housing. It achieves this by utilizing a combination of materials, designs, and sealing elements that adapt to various operating conditions. These include rubber,PTFE, and other synthetic materials that provide excellent resistance to heat, chemicals, and wear.
  • The primary function of the main bearing oil seal is to create a barrier between the high-pressure oil compartment and the low-pressure environment outside the engine. This barrier is essential because oil under high pressure inside the engine can cause severe damage if it leaks out. The oil seal prevents this leakage by creating a tight seal around the crankshaft, which rotates at high speeds during engine operation.

  • Oil seals are used in many areas around the car.
    Figure 6 shows the places where each seal type is used.

  • There are many different materials used to manufacture oil seals.

  • Imperfections on the shaft (burr, corrosion, etc.), which will directly affect the service life of the oil seal.
  • Improved Performance and Fuel Efficiency
  • In conclusion, the jet engine spark plug is a critical component of an aircraft engine, responsible for igniting the fuel-air mixture and ensuring optimal engine performance. Regular maintenance and inspection of spark plugs are necessary to prevent engine malfunctions and ensure the safe operation of an aircraft. By using high-quality spark plugs and following proper maintenance procedures, aircraft operators can maximize engine efficiency, reduce emissions, and enhance overall flight safety.
