This seal animation is made for basic knowledge sharing. It explains the main functions of a contact seal (often called shaft seal or oil seal) in chapters. The animation shows an application with a rotating shaft where the seal is the guard of the bearing, keeping the lubricant in and the contamination out. It is important to understand the basics to differentiate the key-factors for a sealing lip.
