Early engines used O-rings (also called packing rings or toric joints) as seals (first patented in 1896). These are just mechanical gaskets in the shape of a torus (a circular ring--like a lifesaver), seated in a groove and compressed during assembly between two or more parts. It creates a seal at the interface. However, O-rings require a fluid film to lubricate them. They have limited usefulness in vacuum application and at extremes of temperature. The modern oil seal represents a significant improvement over the simple O-ring because it effectively seals in lubrication and prevents contamination from outside under a wide range of pressures and temperatures.
- The CMR5H spark plug is designed to provide a high level of ignition efficiency, ensuring that your engine starts smoothly and runs at its best. This spark plug is suitable for a wide range of vehicles, including cars, motorcycles, ATVs, and more. Its durable construction and high-quality materials ensure that it can withstand the rigors of regular driving.

Over time, the seal lip(s) will wear a shallow groove into the shafting due to the pressure the seal imposes upon it. Visible scoring on the shaft indicates a genuine possibility that the seal will not perform as well as intended. The potential for lubricants leaking out and particulates working their way through the seal drastically increases when placed over a worn location.

ERIKS also supplies the types GR and GRST. These are virtually identical to the types R and RST, except in this case the metal inner ring is also completely encased in rubber. ERIKS uses FKM rubber here as standard, so these seals are ideal for use in acidic environments.
The metal case serves as the oil seal’s exterior or frame, providing rigidity and strength to the seal. The case material selection depends on the environment in which the seal will operate. Often, the same rubber material used in the seal element covers the case to help seal the exterior of the oil seal in the housing bore.
- There are several options available when it comes to purchasing spark plug wires, including OEM (original equipment manufacturer) replacements or aftermarket high-performance wires. OEM wires are designed to meet the specific requirements of the vehicle's engine, while aftermarket wires may offer improved performance and longevity.

- 3. Low compression set High temperature rubber gaskets have low compression set, which ensures that they maintain their shape and seal effectively over time.

Before installing the oil seal, it is important to lubricate it to reduce friction and prevent damage during installation. A silicone-based lubricant is recommended for most applications. If the oil seal is to be installed in a high-temperature or high-pressure environment, a more specialized lubricant may be required.
