Sealing rings for transmissions

Sealing rings for gearboxes ensure the sealing of shaft passages and other contact points in gearbox units. Their primary function is to prevent lubricant leakage and at the same time protect the internal parts of the gearbox from the ingress of contaminants and moisture.

In gearbox systems, these components serve as seals during rotational movement and under operational stresses. Design variants and material solutions differ depending on the operating parameters and the design of the specific gearbox.

Technical documentation for sealing elements typically lists parameters related to shaft compatibility, resistance to lubricants and operating temperature, which affect the ability to provide long-term sealing and protection of gearbox components.
