When it comes to choosing new spark plugs for your car, it is important to consider both cost and quality. While cheaper spark plugs may seem like a more cost-effective option upfront, they may end up costing you more in the long run if they need to be replaced more frequently. Investing in high-quality spark plugs made of premium materials can help improve your car's performance and fuel efficiency, ultimately saving you money in the long term.

Oil Seals 101 – Part 1

China is a significant hub for the wholesale and manufacturing of spark plugs, catering to both domestic and international markets. The country's robust manufacturing infrastructure and expertise in automotive components have positioned it as a leading producer and supplier of spark plugs. Chinese spark plug manufacturers offer a wide range of products, including standard, performance, and specialty spark plugs, catering to diverse customer needs and vehicle applications.

The basic principle of sealing is straightforward – the flexible lip is held against the rotating part (usually the shaft) whilst the casing (or O.D.) is pressed into the housing or bore and holds the seal in place. The sealing lip needs some form of lubrication to avoid overheating and is usually energized by means of a garter spring.

Rotary shaft or oil seals are placed between moving and stationary pieces of machinery to ensure that contaminants, moisture, corrosive materials and abrasives do not damage the various components. They can also prevent unwanted mixing of fluids, including water and oil combining within a machine.

Requirements of the shaft
Even more important than a correct interference fit of the Oil Seal is a perfectly smooth shaft in the region of the seal, particularly if shaft surface speed is high and the medium to be sealed is under a certain amount of excess pressure. The surface roughness of the shaft depends on the average profile depth Ra of the tool marks caused by the machining process. Oil Seals made of PTFE require, independent of the surface speed, a surface roughness of between 0,1 to 0,2 mm, because PTFE has less wear resistance than rubber seals. For normal circumstances, the shaft in the region of the seal must have a surface roughness of approximately:  To summarize, the surface of the shaft in the region of the seal should not have noticeable machining marks. For pivoting shafts and other difficult or critical sealing applications, it is recommended that Oil Seals with a helical groove hydrodynamic pattern, which has a pumping effect, be used. When grinding and polishing, an axial movement of the grindstone along the shaft must be avoided in order to prevent machine lay.
