<strong>shaft</strong> <strong>seals</strong><br />

It should be observed that elastomer products<br />

should not be subjected to tension,<br />

compression or other forms of loading in<br />

storage, as these can produce permanent<br />

deformations and cracks. Seals should<br />

therefore not be hung on hooks during<br />

storage. Certain metals, especially copper and<br />

manganese, damage elastomer products.<br />

Contact with these metals should thus be<br />

avoided and the <strong>seals</strong> should be covered with<br />

layers of paper or polyethylene to prevent such<br />

contact.<br />

In case it is necessary to repack the <strong>seals</strong>,<br />

packaging and covering materials should not<br />

contain substances which are damaging the<br />

<strong>seals</strong>, e.g. copper or alloys containing copper,<br />

petroleum, oil etc. The packaging materials<br />

should not contain softeners.<br />

If the products are powdered, then the<br />

powder must not contain damaging<br />

substances. Suitable powders are talcum,<br />

chalk, finely divided glimmer and rice starch.<br />

Seals which are made of different materials<br />

should not be in contact with each other. This<br />

is particularly important where the <strong>seals</strong> have<br />

different colours.<br />

Seals should be stored for as short a<br />

period as possible. Where long-term storage<br />

is involved, care should be taken to see that<br />

newly arrived products are kept separate from<br />

those already in storage.<br />

Cleaning and maintenance<br />

Elastomer products should be cleaned, if<br />

necessary, using warm soapy water (not above<br />

30 °C) and allowed to dry off at room<br />

temperature.<br />

Solvents such as trichloroethylene, carbon<br />

tetrachloride or hydrocarbons should not be<br />

used, nor should sharp-edged objects, wire<br />

brushes, emery cloth or sandpaper.<br />

Elastomer/metal combinations can be<br />

cleaned using a 1:10 mixture of glycerine in<br />

alcohol.<br />
