These oil seals are the best for applications involving high temperatures. It’s suitable for temperatures between -4 degrees Fahrenheit and 392 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, it’s highly resistant to acids, dissolvent materials, and other chemicals. Viton (FKM/FPM) oil seals can run at a maximum speed of 38 m/s.
Silicone Oil Seals - Designed to absorb lubricants in order to lessen wear and friction, silicone rotary shafts also offer high thermal resistance and a large temperature range. But, they do not handle abrasions well or interact with oxidized oils.

In addition to their resilience, neoprene foam gaskets also provide excellent sealing properties. The foam material is compressible, allowing the gaskets to conform to irregular surfaces and create a tight seal. This sealing capability makes neoprene foam gaskets an effective solution for preventing leaks and ensuring the integrity of equipment and machinery.
The range of uses of peroxydically cross-linked EPDM includes in hot water and steam seals. EPDM is also very resistant to ageing and ozone. Compared with the usual types of synthesis natural rubber it has good resistance to cold temperatures. EPDM is not resistant to aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons or mineral oil products. Resistance to chemicals, and also to oxidising agents, is very good. Temperature range from -50 °C to +140 °C depending on type.

The sealing lip is always made of a rubber or synthetic material. For oil seals with a rubber outer case (R, RST, GR, GRST), the rubber quality of the sealing lip and the outer case are the same.

Better heat, oil and chemical resistance than NBR
It is recommended for use in oil which contains load bearing additives such as EP gear oils
