Many of the old traditional names of seal manufacturers have either changed or disappeared in this age of “acquisitions”. If no longer available, we will advise you and offer a suitable alternative seal, from stock whenever possible. If your concern is getting the right seals for the job, you will need to know something about the application as well as the overall sizes. If you have any doubts – contact us, we will help in your seal selection.
The oil seal within the wheel hub assembly is crucial for preserving the lubrication of the wheel bearings and protecting them from premature wear and damage. Proper maintenance of the oil seal wheel hub is essential to prevent oil leakage and maintain the efficiency of the wheel assembly. Regular inspection and replacement of worn or damaged oil seals are vital to ensure the continued reliability and safety of the vehicle.
Sealing principle: Since there is an oil film controlled by the oil seal edge between the oil seal and the shaft, the oil film has fluid lubrication characteristics.
