Nowadays, radial shaft seals are more and more used in many products with a short or very short life cycle. As a consequence of the reduced durability, the demands on the sealing system decrease so that system components with a significantly lower resistance against wear can be used compared to conventional components. However, changing the resistance against wear of the radial shaft seals does not lead to any cost advantage. The situation in the production of the mating surface of the seal is quite different. Conventional manufactured shaft surfaces, for the use of dynamic radial seals have to be hardened and ground in a complex way, which increases the costs. By reducing these manufacturing processes to a pure turning procedure, a large part of the production costs can be saved.
