Oil Seals
Highly Durable Oil Seals
Protect Components in Harsh Environments
Oil seals are commonly used to protect the shafts and bearings in mechanical equipment from dirt, oil, grease, and other foreign materials. They are commonly referred to as grease, fluid, or dirt seals. North Coast Seal provides oil seals to securely close the spaces between stationary and moving components and prevent any lubricant from escaping. In particularly harsh environments, oil seals can be used to:
- Help prevent lubricants from getting out around the bearings
- Prevent corrosive moisture or abrasive components from entering the machinery
- Stop two different materials—like lubricants and water—from mixing
Virtually all machines and vehicles in operation use oil seals. If your business is looking for a secure, durable oil seal for your mechanical equipment operations, talk to North Coast Seal.
