This part is listed under two names: power steering pump shaft seal and steering gear pitman shaft seal. The seal body stays stationary while its nitrile sealing surface rides against the turning shaft. This helps retain fluid and keep contaminants out.
- Protection against dirt and water: Designed to help keep outside contaminants away from the shaft.
- Rigid metal case: The body is formed from deep drawn sheet steel, creating a stiff, stress-resistant case.
- Garter spring: Made from cold drawn steel wire to support fluid retention.
- Tested design and materials: Manufactured with a tested design and quality materials for correct fit.
Specifications: 0.750 in inside diameter, 1.320 in outside diameter, 0.250 in width, 0.750 in shaft diameter, and a nitrile sealing surface. The listed applications use one seal.
SKF has been designing seals since it introduced the first integrated shaft seal in 1928. Each seal is built to a specific design, using materials selected for the application and its environment.
Signs this seal may need replacing include fluid seepage around the shaft, drips beneath the pump or steering gear, or a fluid level that keeps dropping. Confirm the source of the leak before replacing.
