As part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.idolz.com\/en\/water-pump-components\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">body parts of water pump<\/a>, the dynamic seal, along with the bearing, the seal is the most important element of the water pump, since its tightness depends on them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Therefore, its main function is to protect the bearing by preventing leaks and contamination from the coolant getting a<\/span><b> hermetically sealing water pump.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The challenge in this process is to<\/span><b> allow the rotating shaft to enter the &#8220;wet&#8221; area of \u200b\u200bthe pump<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, without allowing some of the coolant to escape. And for this reason, it is necessary that there is a seal between the pump and the casing, supporting the pressure of the process and the friction caused by the shaft rotation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traditionally, this was achieved through stuffing: <\/span><b>a cord impregnated with waterproofing grease<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, that was wrapped around the shaft behind the turbine.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A technique that has evolved as new engines have been developed in the automotive sector.
