Precautions for floating seal installation

During the installation of floating seals, there are some things that need to be paid attention to. Let’s take a look.

1. The floating sealing ring is prone to deterioration due to long-term contact with air, so the floating sealing ring should be removed during installation. Floating seals are very fragile and should be handled with care. The installation site must be free of dirt and dust.

2. When installing the floating oil seal into the cavity, it is recommended to use installation tools. The O-ring often twists on the floating ring, causing uneven surface pressure and premature failure, or the O-ring is pushed to the bottom of the base and falls off the valley of the floating ring.

3. Floating seals are considered precision parts (especially the joint surfaces), so do not use sharp tools to cause permanent damage to the floating oil seal. And the surface diameter of the joint is very sharp, please wear gloves when moving.
