FAQ

What is the difference between FPM (Viton) and NBR material for a shaft seal?

FPM, also known as Viton, offers superior resistance to high temperatures (up to 200 deg C) and a wider range of chemicals, oils, and fuels compared to NBR (Nitrile). NBR is a good general-purpose material but is typically limited to around 100-120 deg C and is less resistant to aggressive chemicals. Choose FPM for demanding applications.

What does the ‘AS’ designation mean for this Ringseal seal?

The ‘AS’ designation refers to the seal’s cross-sectional design. It features a rubber-covered outer diameter, a primary spring-loaded sealing lip to retain lubricant, and an additional, non-spring-loaded dust lip to prevent external contaminants like dust and dirt from entering the system. This design is also commonly referred to as WAS or TC by other manufacturers.

What are the critical installation considerations for a 105x160x12mm shaft seal?

Proper installation is key to seal performance. Ensure the shaft surface finish is smooth (Ra 0.2 to 0.8 micrometers) and free of nicks or scratches. The housing bore should also be clean and correctly sized. Lubricate both the seal’s outer diameter and the sealing lip with the system’s lubricant before installation. Use a proper installation tool to press the seal in squarely, avoiding damage to the lips.
