SKF invented the first integrated shaft seal in 1928 and has kept pioneering new designs and bonding techniques since then. Each SKF seal is made to a specific design using premium materials, chosen to give the seal the right properties for its application and environment.
Signs this seal may need replacing: lubricant seepage or wetness around the shaft where it exits the housing, a falling fluid level, or grit working past the shaft. Confirm the source of the leak before replacing.
