Oil seal characteristics
1、For the factory
This technique involves aligning the installation tool with the face of the shaft to precisely position the seal. Double-checking alignment after installation is essential to avoid future misalignment issues.
PTFE is special in that a pre-tensioned spring is not required. This is because the material returns to its original shape when heated, also known as the shape-memory polymers (SMPs) effect. These oil seals are also supplied as integrated parts, where it only needs to be installed as one component.
The advantages are low friction and minimum power consumption, the possible use even in case of insufficient lubrication, operating range of -130º c to +200º c and much more: high chemical resistance and a low breakaway torque after standstill. Further, the PTFE, when heated, can” remember” its original form and return to it (phenomenon known as” plastic memory effect”).Therefore, this kind of seal do not need the old school metallic spring.
