MAIBOS / Guides

Practical guides for custom seal procurement.

Dimensions, material choice and acceptance criteria belong in the same enquiry. These concise guides help engineering and purchasing teams prepare a specification without assuming that a standard size is available from stock.

01

O-ring dimensions and drawings

Specify inside diameter and cross-section with units and tolerances, then include the mating groove. A size table identifies a geometry; it does not by itself validate an application or mean that the part is in stock.

Include in your enquiry

ID × cross-section · mm or inch · standard and edition if required · groove and assembly drawing

O-Rings
02

Material selection

Compare NBR, FKM/FPM, silicone and EPDM against the actual fluid, temperature and movement. A polymer family or colour cannot identify a compound's complete performance or its regulatory status.

Include in your enquiry

Fluid and concentration · temperature range · hardness · motion · required material evidence

Materials
03

Oil-seal enquiries

An outside diameter is not enough to identify a replacement. Supply the shaft diameter, housing bore, seal width and profile, together with the operating conditions and any marking on the original part.

Include in your enquiry

Shaft × housing × width · lip/profile drawing · rotation speed and direction · fluid · installation details

Oil Seals

Custom-order handover

Keep quotation, sample approval and purchase order tied to the same drawing revision. Send the expected batch quantity and destination; request any certificates or inspection records before the quotation is finalised.

Include in your enquiry

Drawing revision · sample approval · batch and annual quantity · destination · documents required

Technical references

Independent references for terminology and design principles, not evidence of Maibos certification or affiliation. The final compound and assembly must be validated for your use.
