Mechanical seals are what keeps your washing machine motor dry despite having a shaft that goes into water. Also pumps, i used to see towboats and they were dumping water all the time.

Shaft seals but they're not perfect and that's a big part of why the propshafts were incredibly vulnerable to torpedoes back in the day.
