ERIKS type M (type B according to the DIN standard) has a single metal casing and rubber sealing lip. Since the casing is made of metal, it must be fitted in a well-finished, undamaged groove. Large volumes of oil seals with metal casings are often cheaper, which is why they are often used as original equipment in machines. However, if an oil seal has to be replaced, types with a rubber exterior (type R or RST) are easier to fit. Type MST is similar to M and commonly used. The difference is the dust lip in the MST oil seal that prevents dust and dirt reaching the sealing lip, and extends its service life in dusty environments.



A number of variables must be considered when selecting oil seals. There are nine factors that designers and maintenance engineers must evaluate when oil seals are specified:
Proper installation of the 25x47x7 oil seal is essential to ensure its effectiveness. It is important to carefully clean and prepare the surfaces where the seal will be placed, as any dirt or debris can compromise the seal's ability to function properly. Additionally, the seal should be installed with the correct orientation and pressure to create a tight and secure seal.
