In gearboxes, oil seals play an essential role in ensuring that the lubricant stays within the gearbox while keeping contaminants out. This is critical for the smooth operation of the gears, as proper lubrication reduces friction and wear. Oil seals also help to minimize noise generated by the moving gears and prevent overheating by maintaining an adequate level of lubrication. This not only enhances performance but also prolongs the life of the gearbox, making it more reliable and efficient.
