FAQs

Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about seals and Continental's manufacturing capabilities.

What are seals made of?

Seals can be made of various materials such as elastomers, metals, and plastics. The choice of material depends on the specific application requirements, including temperature, pressure, and chemical compatibility.

How do seals work?

Seals work by creating a barrier between two mating surfaces, preventing fluid or gas leaks. They can be static, rotating, or reciprocal, depending on the application. The design of the seal, including its lip or spring, ensures proper sealing and prevents leakage.

What are oil seals?

Oil seals, also known as grease seals, have a flexible lip that rubs against a shaft or housing to prevent the leakage or ingress of fluids and dirt. Proper installation is important, with the seal lip pointing towards the medium being contained.

Why are gaskets used?

Gaskets are used to prevent fluid or gas leaks between two mating surfaces. They must be able to maintain a seal under pressure and temperature changes. Different types of gaskets are available, including pre-cut compression, formed-in-place, and cured-in-place gaskets.

What are square rings?

Square rings are sealing devices similar to O-rings but with a square or rectangular cross-section. They offer larger contact area, better stability, improved extrusion resistance, and lower friction compared to O-rings. Square rings are used in various industries for applications where their unique properties provide advantages over traditional O-rings.
