Application in rotary sealing systems

ZBA design - single lip without spring

Technical data and material compatibility

Main description

The 10x14x3 ZBA rotary shaft seal is a technical oil seal made of NBR (nitrile-butadiene rubber), designed for basic rotary sealing applications in industrial and automotive environments. This model is a single-lip shaft seal without a spring, featuring an elastomer outer jacket that ensures proper seating in the housing and effective sealing under stable operating conditions.

Thanks to its compact dimensions and simplified ZBA design, this rotary shaft seal is well suited for applications with limited installation space, moderate rotational speeds, and standard pressure conditions. The NBR compound provides reliable resistance to oils and greases, making the seal suitable for common lubricants used in industrial machinery and mechanical assemblies.

Compared to solutions such as a double-lip oil seal, the ZBA version offers a straightforward construction focused on primary sealing performance. The absence of a spring reduces assembly complexity and minimizes the risk of damage during installation. As a result, this shaft seal is frequently used in series production, maintenance operations, and cost-effective industrial designs where consistent sealing performance is required.

The 10x14x3 ZBA oil seal is commonly applied as a shaft seal for machines, small gear units, auxiliary drives, and rotating components where effective rotary sealing is essential. It can be used in new equipment as well as a replacement part in repair and maintenance tasks. This product is intended for B2B customers seeking a durable and practical sealing solution for standard industrial applications.

FAQ - frequently searched questions

What is the difference between a single-lip and a double-lip oil seal?
A single-lip seal provides basic sealing, while a double-lip seal offers additional protection against external contamination.

What material is used in the 10x14x3 ZBA seal?
The seal is made of NBR, known for its resistance to oils and greases.

Does the lack of a spring affect sealing performance?
No, in standard operating conditions the ZBA design ensures reliable sealing without a spring.

Where is this rotary shaft seal typically used?
In industrial machines, small gearboxes, drives, and rotating assemblies.

How do I select the correct shaft seal size?
Match the inner diameter to the shaft, the outer diameter to the housing, and the width to the installation space.
