• Inner Diameter (ID): 11 mm
• Outer Diameter (OD): 17 mm
• Cross‑Section: 3.70 mm (standard for many OEM engines)
• Material: FPM (Fluorinated Polymeric Rubber) – a fluorine‑based elastomer offering excellent resistance to oils, fuels, and high temperatures.
• Temperature Range: -40 °C to +200 °C
• Pressure Rating: Up to 10 bar (varies with application)
• Compliance: Meets OEM specifications for Mercedes‑Benz, Iveco, and other heavy‑duty vehicle manufacturers.

Material Advantages – FPM Fluor‑Rubber

The choice of FPM (Fluoro‑Polymer Rubber) is critical for engine oil seals. This material provides:

• Exceptional chemical resistance: It remains stable when exposed to a wide range of oils, fuels, and additives.
• High temperature tolerance: Maintains elasticity up to 200 °C without degradation.
• Low permeability: Minimizes oil leakage through the seal, ensuring long‑term engine protection.
• Durability: Resistant to abrasion and wear, extending service life even under harsh operating conditions.

Design Features for Optimal Performance

The ELRING 761559 incorporates several design elements that enhance its sealing capability:

• Precision Machining: Tight tolerances guarantee a snug fit within the engine housing, reducing play and potential leakage paths.
• Uniform Cross‑Section: The consistent 3.70 mm width ensures even load distribution across the seal surface.
• Surface Finish: A smooth inner surface reduces friction against rotating components, improving efficiency.
• Compatibility with OEM Standards: It is engineered to match the exact dimensions required by major vehicle manufacturers, ensuring seamless integration during assembly or replacement.

Applications Across Industries

The versatility of the ELRING 761559 makes it suitable for a broad range of applications beyond automotive engines:

• Commercial Vehicles: Ideal for heavy‑duty trucks, buses, and vans where reliable oil sealing is critical.
• Agricultural Machinery: Provides robust protection against oil leaks in tractors and harvesters operating under variable loads.
• Industrial Equipment: Used in generators, compressors, and hydraulic systems that require high‑temperature resistance.
• Marine Engines: Its chemical stability makes it suitable for marine environments where saltwater exposure is a concern.

Installation Guidelines

Proper installation ensures maximum performance and longevity of the seal ring. Follow these steps:

1. Clean the Sealing Surface: Remove all contaminants, old gasket material, and debris from the engine housing.
2. Inspect the Seal: Verify that the O‑ring is free of cracks, tears, or deformation before installation.
3. Apply a Light Lubricant (Optional): A small amount of compatible lubricant can aid placement but should not compromise the seal’s integrity.
4. Position Carefully: Align the O‑ring with the groove, ensuring it sits flush against both sides of the housing.
5. Check for Proper Seating: Confirm that the ring is fully seated and free from twists or kinks.

Maintenance & Longevity Tips

To extend the life of your ELRING 761559, consider these maintenance practices:

• Regular Inspection: Check for signs of wear or oil leakage during routine service intervals.
• Avoid Over‑Pressurization: Ensure that engine pressure does not exceed the specified limits to prevent premature seal failure.
• Use Compatible Fluids: Stick to oils and additives recommended by OEM guidelines to maintain material compatibility.
• Store Properly: Keep unused seals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
