There
are a number of physical properties you should
consider when choosing an elastomeric compound
for your shaft
seal application. These include hardness,
tensile strength, modulus, elongation, tear resistance,
abrasion resistance, compression set resistance,
and resilience. The extent to which these properties
are present in a material has a huge impact on
the material’s ability to function effectively
as part of a shaft seal.
