Advantages of National Oil Seal:

1.Rugged Durability: Oversized double-walled metal outer diameter helps prevent the seal from spinning or walking out of the hub bore (includes

black bore sealant).Heavy-duty construction enables effective heat transfer away from the sealing lip.

2. Extended Seal Life: Corrosion-proof spacers feature multiple vent holes,enabling the free flow of lubricant to the sealing lip to help extend service

life.

3. Innovative Protection: Unique contamination exclusion system utilizing three nitrile (NBR) lip contact barrier points helps prevent seal lip damage

and provides protection across a broad temperature range (-20ºF to 225ºF [-29ºC to 107ºC]).

4. Impressive Sealing: Wide shoulder coverage provides protection on worn or damaged axle shoulders.

5. Stronger Value: Meets or exceeds the performance of major industry competitors.

What types of oil seals are there?

There are many different types of oil seals including single and double lip, rubber or polymer, metal cased, spring loaded, and internal, external, and axial oriented.

What are the benefits of nitrile rubber oil seals? 

Oil seals made from nitrile rubber offer good heat resistance properties, and are also resistant to salt solutions, oils, hydraulic oils, and gasoline They also operate well in dry environments for intermittent periods.

How is an oil seal constructed? 

Oil seals generally consist of three basic components including the sealing element, the metal casing, and the garter spring.

Why do oil seals fail?

Severe cold can crack seals and cause them to fail. Other seals such as brake, transmission, and axle seals can be damaged due to extreme temperatures as well. Dirt and contaminants can also cause seals to slowly break down over time allowing for leaks and eventual failure.
