❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): EC16x6
✅ Q1: What is the purpose of the 16mm NBR Nitrile Rubber End Cap?
A1: It is used to seal a static housing bore to prevent contaminants (like dust, oil, or moisture) from entering and to protect internal components such as bearings in systems where the shaft does not extend through the wall.
✅ Q2: Can this Nitrile Rubber End Cap be used for a rotating shaft?
A2: No. This is a static end cap, not designed for rotation or shaft movement. For rotating shafts, use a rotary shaft seal.
