1. Assess Your Needs Consider the specific application and the types of gaps you need to fill. This evaluation will help you determine the ideal thickness and material.
Regular Maintenance
Choosing the Best Sealing Strip
3. Production Methods The manufacturing process used to create the seal strips can affect pricing. Injection molding, extrusion, and handcrafting are common methods, each with its cost implications. Automated production lines generally yield lower costs per unit compared to manual methods, but may require a significant upfront investment in machinery.
- Vinyl This material is appreciated for its affordability and ease of installation. Vinyl seal strips are often used in residential settings but can also be effective in commercial spaces.
- Noise Reduction Seal strips effectively diminish sound transmission, creating a quieter and more peaceful environment in residential and commercial spaces.
Benefits of Using Sealing Strips
Additionally, regular maintenance can prolong the life of your window seal strips. Periodically inspect them for signs of wear and tear, and clean them to remove dust and grime that can affect their performance.

Shaft Speed - Considering the speed that the shaft will be moving, the runout, the housing bore and the type of oil being sealed is vital to making sure you select an oil seal that will not suffer from abrasions or spiralling.
There are several materials used to manufacture oil seals. They are discussed below.
Motor oils typically include a few additives which can make up between 5% and 30% of the oil. These additives help enhance the performance of the oil. Motor oils can include the following additives:
Fluids
• Fuel oil
• Lubricating oil
• Hydraulic fluid
• Grease
• Chemicals
• Water
In addition to selecting the right type of oil seal, it is essential to consider the operating conditions of the equipment. Factors such as temperature, pressure, and speed can impact the performance and longevity of the seal. Choosing a seal that is rated for the specific operating conditions will help ensure reliable sealing and extended service life.
