TC / SC Series Auto Oil Seals

xtnbk supply professional and honest service.

What are TC oil seals and SC oil seals? How can ASA TC and SC types oil seal applicate in the industry?

ASA TC oil seal is a shaft seal composed of a single metal cage with a rubber coating, a primary sealing lip with integrated spring, and an additional anti-pollution sealing lip. Advantages in good static sealing, thermal expansion compensation, greater roughness allow in the housing, and reduce risk of corrosion.

ASA SC oil seal is a single lip skeleton, and the combined inner shell is designed to enhance the rigidity of the oil seal. It is especially suitable for larger sizes of oil seals with a back fit for sealing. It has a sealing lip, a spring, and a low coefficient of friction.

NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber)

Nitrile rubber (NBR) is the general term for acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer. The ACN content can vary between 18% and 50%. While the acrylonitrile content is important, the resistance to oil and fuel is more so. Conversely, the elasticity and compression set are not as good. The NBR has good mechanical properties and good wear resistance. However, its resistance to atmospheric agents and the ozone is relatively low.

Chemical compatibility

A &quotChemical compatibility guide&quot catalogue can be downloaded from the Documentation section. You can also use our online &quotChemical compatibility&quot tool free of charge.

These two tools give you the option of measuring the behaviour of our materials that come into contact with the majority of existing fluids. The data displayed is the result of rigorous testing of the ambient temperature and in consultation with previous publications. Test results are not fully representative due to the specific features of your application. The tests performed actually do not consider additives and impurities that may exist under the actual conditions of use, nor the potential elevation of temperatures. Other parameters can also alter the behaviour of our materials, such as the hardness, persistence, abrasion, etc. We therefore recommend performing your own tests to verify the compatibility of our materials according to your specific application. Our technical team can provide you with any additional information.
