PTFE/300SS SEALS VS. ELASTOMER MOLDED SEALS Typical Elastomer Molded Design Separable Shields SEPARATOR GUIDE Typical PTFE/300SS Design SEALS & SHIELDS Many molded seals used in bearings are made out of nitrile (molded rubber per MIL-R-6855). The material has a relatively high coefcient of friction. In order to meet low torque bearing requirements, seal t-up during installation must be adjusted to minimize contact pressure on the sealing surfaces - reducing torque by reducing sealing effectiveness. The inherent variability in the seal molding process can further aggravate these issues. Over time,...
