Type AUTO Oil Seals

AUTO-type seals are specifically designed for use in the automotive industry, where a combination of high reliability, durability, and resistance to varying operating conditions is required. These seals perform critical functions in systems such as engines, transmissions, differentials, gearboxes, wheels, water pumps, and air conditioning compressors, among others.

Their design can vary widely depending on the specific application, but they typically incorporate a primary sealing lip with a reinforcing spring, optionally accompanied by a dust or wiper lip that protects the system from external contaminants such as water, mud, dust, or abrasive particles. The materials used in AUTO-type seals are generally high-performance elastomers (NBR, FKM, HNBR, ACM), combined with metal structures or elastomeric coatings, depending on the housing type and the medium to be sealed.

In addition to withstanding high rotational speeds, thermal fluctuations, and exposure to aggressive lubricants, many automotive seals are designed to operate under mixed pressure and vacuum conditions, adapting to the specific requirements of each system. They may also incorporate helical grooves on the sealing lip to facilitate lubricant return toward the interior and improve dynamic sealing efficiency, particularly in crankshafts and camshafts.

AUTO-type seals are manufactured in compliance with strict automotive industry quality standards, such as ISO/TS 16949, and are essential for ensuring the proper operation, safety, and efficiency of vehicle systems.
