Schaeffler engineers its wheel seals from high-quality materials to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications. It works with its suppliers to design seals that satisfy Schaeffler's own quality standards. A wheel seal is designed to shield wheel end components from dirt, dust and moisture and to help keep grease from escaping the bearing. Wheel seal specifications are demanding, and the right seal depends on the application, position and vehicle class.
Signs a wheel seal may need replacing include grease seeping from behind the hub, grease on nearby brake parts, or contamination found in the bearing during service. Diagnose the cause before replacing parts. A wheel seal is often replaced whenever the wheel bearings are serviced. See the Buyer's Guide tab for complete application details.
