    Ribbed Buna-N over steel creates a tight seal with the bore, even when mating with a rough surface or in a split housing. Also known as oil seals, these retain oil on rotating shafts in motors, pumps, bearings, and gearboxes. They have a secondary lip that blocks contaminants and a spring that secures the sealing-lip to prevent leaks. Press-fit seals into the bore around the shaft. Seals with a maximum pressure of 145 psi should be secured with a retaining ring.
    Note: Maximum performance values cannot be achieved simultaneously; for example, speed is affected by pressure, temperature, and other operating conditions.

    Also known as grease seals, these are designed to retain thick lubricant at low pressure in motors, pumps, bearings, and gearboxes. They have a light grip on the shaft that creates less friction than spring-loaded seals. Press-fit seals into the bore around the shaft.
    Note: Maximum performance values cannot be achieved simultaneously; for example, speed is affected by pressure, temperature, and other operating conditions.
    Acrylic-Coated Case—Seals with an acrylic-coated case have a coating that compensates for surface imperfections in the housing bore for a tight seal on the OD.

    These seals are fluoroelastomer, so they have excellent chemical resistance and withstand temperatures up to 390° F. Also known as V-rings and flingers, they protect shaft bearings by blocking dust and other contaminants while retaining lubricant. To install, stretch the seal over your shaft and press it firmly against the face plate.
    Note: Maximum performance values cannot be achieved simultaneously; for example, speed is affected by pressure, temperature, and other operating conditions.

    A slippery PTFE surface allows these seals to function at speeds at least 25% faster than other rotary shaft seals. Also known as oil seals, use these to retain oil on rotating shafts in motors, pumps, bearings, and gearboxes. An O-ring secures the lips to prevent leaks, while sealing against the housing. Press-fit seals into the bore around the shaft.
    Note: Maximum performance values cannot be achieved simultaneously; for example, speed is affected by pressure, temperature, and other operating conditions.

    Designed with an extended lip, these seals have the flexibility to accommodate shaft misalignment up to 0.125". Also known as clipper seals, they retain oil on rotating shafts in motors, pumps, bearings, and gearboxes. A spring secures the lip to prevent leaks. Press-fit seals into the housing bore around the shaft; they fit tight for installation without a cover plate.
    Note: Maximum performance values cannot be achieved simultaneously; for example, speed is affected by pressure, temperature, and other operating conditions.

    Used to retain oil on rotating shafts in motors, pumps, bearings, and gearboxes, these seals have a secondary lip that blocks contaminants. Also known as oil seals, a spring secures the lip against the shaft, preventing messy leaks. Press-fit seals into the bore around the shaft. Seals with a maximum pressure of 50 psi should be secured with a retaining ring.
