Whether you're looking for seals in the drive unit, transmission or for your shock absorbers, seals play a crucial role in the operation and longevity of your electric vehicle. Parker offers a variety of sealing solutions for EVs that contribute to the overall performance, safety and efficiency of electric vehicles. 

Conductive Seals

A shunt and seal in one, Parker's new conductive bearing seals save you money while protecting your bearings from damage. Available in both elastomeric and PTFE materials, these seals eliminate the need for alternative grounding solutions such as a shaft grounding bock, a carbon fiber grounding ring and a ceramic insulated bearing.

Shock Absorber Seals

The sealing system is a crucial component of a shock absorber as it keeps hydraulic oil in the shock absorber and contaminents such as water or mud out. If the shock absorber fails, it leads to a rough ride and can potentially cause damage to other components of the car. 

The weight of the battery pack in EVs often results in a higher overall vehicle weight compared to traditional cars. This leads to a higher load on the suspension system, and in turn, on the shock absorbers, making the role of shock absorber seals even more critical to maintaining performance and preventing premature wear and tear.
