Industry retailers use unique codes to identify oil seals worldwide. The most common lip style designations are 21 (single lip) and 23 (double lip), please read our Oil Seal Cross Reference Guide for more detailed information.

Fully covered outer diameter for excellent sealing. This oil seal is fully enclosed in a rubber material and is the most widely used type of oil seal. Great resistance to thermal cycling, temperatures and different chemical resistance.

Finally, Polymax part codes follow the same pattern as our O-rings - inner diameter, outer diameter and height. This is different from the industry-standard convention, whereby imperial oil seals follow - outer diameter, inner diameter and height.

Rubber adhesives are flexible, high-strength bonding agents. Rubber adhesives include acrylonitrile, styrene, natural rubber, neoprene, and polyurethane, among others. Rubber-derived contact adhesives may be used with various surfaces like glass, metal, and natural fibres.

Replacing a critical component can be difficult to get right, especially if you do not have the original machine specifications. Thankfully, there are a few ways to identify oil seals; from their design, size and material. As there are hundreds of different oil seals available on the market, this guide will cover the four most common design types. Typically available with either a single or double lip, in Nitrile or Viton Rubber Material.

Firstly, the oil seals covered in this guide classify the single lip as the inner diameter at the bottom of the component. The single lip is vital to the function of the seal by containing the oil, grease or lubricant. The only difference between a single and double lip is the additional rubber lip on the top of the oil seal which helps prevent dust or dirt from coming close to the shaft. Identifying the oil seal lip can be misinterpreted with a visual inspection alone. For or this reason, you should press along the inner diameter at the top of the seal, if you feel a ridge with a slight movement or give it is highly likely you have a double lipped oil seal.

The same design as type A with corrosion protected metal case and stainless-steel garter spring. Suitable for use with a wide range of fuels and chemicals.

Rubber cord is manufactured when rubber is forced through a die of the required cross-section under pressure of an extruder. Rubber cords come with varying durability to different types of exposure. Common types include EPDM, Nitrile (NBR), Neoprene, and Silicone cords. They are used in various industrial applications including seals, motors and associated machinery, construction equipment, and portable tools and appliances, among others

Silicone is a synthetic elastomer which provides unique physical properties in compassion to carbon-based rubber materials. It is the preferred choice in the food, beverage and medical industries due to its low toxicity, thermal stability and resistance to micro-bacterial growth. Some grades of silicone rubber can remain flexible down to temperatures as low as -100°C and as high as 315°C. The Polymax silicone product range includes solid sheeting, sponge or foam sheeting, cord, sponge strips, O-rings, tubing, hoses and edging strips. We also provide a large collection of Momentive primers and adhesives.

The same design as type B with an additional inner case for greater structural rigidity. This type of oil seal is typically used in heavy-duty engineering machinery or large diameter sized seals

Economic metal outer diameter for standard applications. This is an economical oil seal where the metal is exposed on one side and offers a closer fitting between the oil seal and housing or bore. Due to this, it has limited use with sealing thin liquids or gases.
