FPM Rotary Shaft Seal 130x160x12 SC - Single Lip Oil Seal

Applications of the FPM Rotary Shaft Seal 130x160x12 SC

The FPM rotary shaft seal 130x160x12 SC is a professional single lip oil seal engineered for reliable rotary sealing in demanding industrial and automotive environments. Designed for shafts with a 130 mm diameter, this shaft sealing ring is widely used in gearboxes, pumps, motors, compressors and selected engine assemblies where stable oil retention is required without additional dust exclusion.

As a technical seal of SC type (single lip), it is particularly suitable for applications with controlled operating conditions and limited external contamination. The seal provides consistent contact pressure on the shaft, ensuring effective sealing performance and reduced friction during continuous operation.

FPM Material Advantages and High Durability

Manufactured from FPM (FKM fluorocarbon rubber), this rotary oil seal offers excellent resistance to oils and grease, fuels, and many aggressive chemical media. FPM is the preferred material for applications involving elevated temperatures and long service intervals, making this seal suitable for both industrial applications and heavy-duty automotive use.

Compared to standard NBR seals, FPM delivers superior thermal stability and aging resistance. This translates into high durability, minimal hardening over time, and reliable sealing performance under continuous load. The single lip SC design also reduces friction and heat generation, supporting stable operation at higher shaft speeds.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between single lip and double lip oil seals?
A single lip oil seal focuses on oil retention, while a double lip seal includes an additional dust lip for protection against external contamination.

When should an SC type oil seal be used?
SC seals are recommended for applications with clean operating environments and stable lubrication conditions.

Why choose FPM instead of NBR?
FPM offers better resistance to high temperatures, oils and chemicals, providing longer service life in demanding applications.

Is this rotary shaft seal suitable for high-speed operation?
Yes, the low-friction single lip design supports stable performance at higher shaft speeds.

How do I select the correct shaft seal size?
The seal must match the shaft diameter, housing diameter and installation width exactly, such as 130x160x12 in this case.
