  • Ensuring Proper Installation and Maintenance

  • Due to having a higher density, Viton has the widest temperature range of -40°F to over 400°F (-40°C to over 240°C) making it a perfect choice for higher temperature applications. Viton® also has the largest range of chemical resistance, i.e., it is resistant to silicone oil and grease, mineral/vegetable oil and grease, aliphatic, aromatic, and chlorinated hydrocarbons, non-flammable hydraulic fuels as well methanol fuels, and more.
     

  • To address this challenge, many companies have turned to advanced materials and innovative designs. For example, some seals are made from high-performance elastomers that can resist heat, cold, and chemicals better than traditional rubber compounds. Others feature intricate labyrinth patterns or multiple layers of protection to reduce the risk of leakage and wear.
  • It is important to replace the valve cover gasket at the first sign of wear or damage. Ignoring the problem can lead to more serious issues down the line, such as oil leaks, which can cause damage to other engine components. Regular maintenance, including checking and replacing the valve cover gasket, can help prevent these problems and ensure optimal engine performance.
  • Many seals come with a garter spring, found within the backside of the seal. It provides contracting pressure against the sealing surface. Making sure the spring seats correctly within the seal is an excellent first step.
