What are the rubber seals commonly used in cars?

In the automotive industry, rubber seals are widely used. These seals are used in a variety of different components and systems to provide reliable sealing performance and ensure the efficiency and performance of the vehicle. The following describes some commonly used rubber seals in automobiles.

 

1. Natural rubber sealing ring (NR) : Natural rubber is a kind of rubber material with excellent elasticity and resilience, widely used in various sealing occasions of automobiles. It has good wear resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, but the oil resistance is relatively poor.

 

2. Silicone rubber seal ring (SiR) : Silicone rubber is a kind of polymer material, has excellent high temperature resistance, low temperature resistance, suitable for automotive engine, brake system and other high temperature environment sealing. In addition, silicone rubber also has excellent electrical insulation properties and chemical corrosion resistance.

 

3. Nitrile rubber sealing ring (NBR) : Nitrile rubber is a kind of oil and chemical corrosion resistant rubber material, widely used in automotive fuel system, hydraulic system and other parts of the seal. It has good wear resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, but the high temperature performance is relatively poor.

 

4. Fluorine rubber sealing ring (FKM) : fluorine rubber is a kind of rubber material with excellent chemical corrosion resistance and oil resistance, which is suitable for the sealing of automotive engine, gearbox and other parts. It has excellent wear resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, but the cost is high.

 

5. Polyurethane rubber sealing ring (PU) : polyurethane rubber is a kind of rubber material with high elasticity and high wear resistance, which is widely used in the sealing of automotive braking system, suspension system and other parts. It has good wear resistance and anti-aging properties, but the cost is high.

 

These rubber seals are widely used in the automotive industry to provide reliable sealing protection for the operation of automobiles. Different rubber materials have different characteristics and application occasions, choosing the right rubber material is crucial to improve the performance and life of the car.
