RUBBER MATERIAL
Materials normally applied in produce oil seal include NBR,
PA, SI, and VI rubber etc.
Make selection according to fluid type and operating temperature
Under wide application conditions Now we are to make interpretation
on the following rubber materials.
1.NBR (Nitrile rubber)
NBR has an oil-resisting property better
than other synthetic rubber
and hence is widely applied to oil seals. It has good heat resistance
.The
defective problem is poor chemical resistance.
2. PA (Polyacrylate rubber)
Applied specifically to shaft seal of vehicles. Normally the
PA rubber
is applied to the shafts of vehicle engine, transmission gears
& pinions,
power steering system and won't get hardened by heat or lube
oil additives,and the vulnerability is that this
material will degrade in water or steam environment, the anti-cold
ability and tensile strength is lower than NBR.
3. SI (Silicon rubber)
The SI rubber bears a very weak tensile strength then other
polyesters in
dry condition; therefore it's not suitable to become oil seal
of rotating
shaft. However, SI could resistance to
heat and low temperature.
4. VI (Fluorinated
rubber)
The VI rubber can withstand oil temperature up to 150-230oC
and still
be in good state. And also can withstand chemicals. The vulnerability
of VI rubber is that it cannot withstand low temperature and
will harden in a temperature at -20~-30oC. VI
rubber is for high temperature use.
