Fluid side face - FKM TC oil seals are a crucial component in many industrial applications, providing a barrier against the leakage of fluids and gases in rotary and static shafts. These seals are made from a type of synthetic rubber called FKM (fluoroelastomer), which is known for its excellent resistance to high temperatures, chemicals, and fuels.

- b. Stainless Steel – which is used when resistance to water, seawater, and chemicals are involved.
- To maximize the benefits of iridium, Iridium Spark Plug features a unique design that optimizes the metal's properties. The spark plug's center electrode is made from iridium, ensuring maximum durability and resistance to wear. The insulator, which comes into contact with the combustible gases, is made from a ceramic material that is both durable and resistant to heat.
- A spark plug, with its central electrode and ground electrode separated by a small gap, generates a spark when voltage is applied, igniting the compressed fuel in the engine's combustion chamber. Over time, spark plugs can wear out or become contaminated, leading to misfires, reduced power, and increased fuel consumption.
- Despite their robust construction, head gaskets can fail due to various reasons, including overheating, excessive cylinder pressure, or simply age and wear. A blown head gasket, a condition where the gasket fails, can result in severe engine damage, such as coolant leakage into the oil, loss of compression, or even complete engine seizure. Therefore, regular maintenance and prompt attention to any signs of gasket failure, like coolant in the oil or white smoke from the exhaust, are crucial.
FPM
Early engines used O-rings (also called packing rings or toric joints) as seals (first patented in 1896). These are just mechanical gaskets in the shape of a torus (a circular ring--like a lifesaver), seated in a groove and compressed during assembly between two or more parts. It creates a seal at the interface. However, O-rings require a fluid film to lubricate them. They have limited usefulness in vacuum application and at extremes of temperature. The modern oil seal represents a significant improvement over the simple O-ring because it effectively seals in lubrication and prevents contamination from outside under a wide range of pressures and temperatures.

Tighten all fixings in sequence to the correct torque (consult a service manual or dealer if you are uncertain of the torque).
Oil seals increasingly had to meet higher requirements, which is why PTFE was developed in 1980. This variant can better withstand higher engine speeds, higher oil temperatures, longer oil intervals and modern lubricants. In addition, the oil seal contains a wider contact surface, which ensures less wear.
