2. Radial shaft seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_shaft_seal

   Radial shaft seal of Romo washing machine pump. Radial shaft seals, also known as lip seals, are used to seal rotary elements, such as a shaft or rotating bore.Common examples include strut seals, hydraulic pump seals, axle seals, power steering seals, and valve stem seals.

3. Hydraulic seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_seal

   A hydraulic seal is a relatively soft, non-metallic ring, captured in a groove or fixed in a combination of rings, forming a seal assembly, to block or separate fluid in reciprocating motion applications. Hydraulic seals are vital in machinery. Their use is critical in providing a way for fluid power to be converted to linear motion.

4. 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 ...

5. Rotary union - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_union

   The heart of the rotary union is the seal. The seal prevents the medium from leaking outside the rotary union while in operation. Seal types can vary from pusher-type end face mechanical seal, non-pusher type end face mechanical seal, lip seals, and o-ring seals. Most rotary unions have more than one seal. [6]

6. 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 .

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.
