Product Description

Rubber, Seal 1, Yamaha,
For Outboard: Yamaha 9.9, Yamaha 15
Features:
1. Elasticity and Flexibility: The rubber seal is designed to be flexible and elastic, allowing it to conform to different surfaces and maintain a tight seal even when parts expand or contract due to temperature changes. |
2. Waterproofing: Its primary function is to prevent water from entering sensitive engine areas, such as the gear case, propeller shaft, and other components exposed to water. |
3. Temperature Resistance: Rubber seals in outboard motors are engineered to withstand high temperatures generated by the engine and changing environmental conditions without losing their sealing properties. |
Functions:
1. Waterproof Protection: The rubber seal prevents water, oil, and other fluids from entering or leaking out of various compartments, including the gear case, engine block, and fuel systems. |
2. Dirt and Debris Prevention: By forming a tight seal, it also prevents dirt, dust, and other contaminants from entering engine parts, which could cause wear or damage. |
3. Vibration Absorption: Rubber seals help absorb some of the vibrations and shocks generated by the engine, reducing wear on other components and providing a smoother ride. |
Maintenance Tips:
1. Regular Inspection: Inspect rubber seals regularly for signs of wear, cracks, or hardening, especially after long periods of use. A worn or damaged seal can lead to leaks or contamination. |
2. Replace When Needed: Rubber seals naturally degrade over time due to exposure to heat, oil, and water. If you notice any signs of deterioration, replace the seals immediately to prevent more serious damage to the engine. |
3. Clean Surrounding Areas: Ensure that the areas where the rubber seals are installed are clean and free of debris during installation and maintenance to ensure a proper seal. |
4. Lubrication: Some seals may benefit from a light application of marine-grade grease or oil during installation to prevent them from drying out and to improve the seal. |
Common Issues and Symptoms:
1. Leakage: One of the most common signs of a faulty rubber seal is leakage of oil, water, or fuel around the sealed area. This could lead to engine damage if not addressed quickly. |
2. Cracking or Hardening: Over time, exposure to heat and environmental elements can cause rubber seals to crack or harden, reducing their ability to form an effective seal. |
3. Excessive Vibration: If the rubber seal that absorbs vibrations becomes worn out, you may notice an increase in engine vibration, which could lead to other parts wearing out faster. |
