2. Radial shaft seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_shaft_seal

   Depending on the seal type these two angles are varied to create a pressure distribution at the seal contact line which has a steeper slope on the oil side of the seal. The shallower the slope on the oil side of the seal, the wetter the seal will run. The spring is positioned such that axially the centerline of the spring is biased to the air ...

3. O-ring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O-ring

   O-rings are available in various metric and inch standard sizes. Sizes are specified by the inside diameter and the cross section diameter (thickness). In the US the most common standard inch sizes are per SAE AS568C specification (e.g. AS568-214). ISO 3601-1:2012 contains the most commonly used standard sizes, both inch and metric, worldwide.

4. O-ring boss seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O-ring_boss_seal

   An o-ring boss seal is a technique for joining two fluid-carrying pipes, hoses, or tubing. In an o-ring boss (abbreviated ORB) system, a male-threaded part is inserted into a female-threaded part, providing a mechanical seal. This system differs from others in that a nut is tightened over an o-ring in a chamfered area, creating a fluid-tight ...

5. Seal (mechanical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seal_(mechanical)

   A seal is a device or material that helps join systems, mechanisms or other materials together by preventing leakage (e.g. in a pumping system), containing pressure, or excluding contamination. The effectiveness of a seal is dependent on adhesion in the case of sealants and compression in the case of gaskets .

6. End-face mechanical seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-face_mechanical_seal

   In mechanical engineering, an end-face mechanical seal (often shortened to mechanical seal) is a type of seal used in rotating equipment, such as pumps, mixers, blowers, and compressors. When a pump operates, the liquid could leak out of the pump between the rotating shaft and the stationary pump casing. Since the shaft rotates, preventing this ...

7. Labyrinth seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labyrinth_seal

   Labyrinth seals are also found on pistons, which use them to store oil and seal against high pressure during compression and power strokes, as well as on non-rotating shafts. In these applications, it is the long and difficult path and the formation of controlled fluid vortices plus some limited contact-sealing action that creates the seal.
