This part is listed under two names: Transfer Case Input Shaft Seal and Transfer Case Adapter Seal. The seal's case stays stationary while its lip contacts the rotating input shaft. This helps keep lubricants in and contaminants out.
- Protection against dirt and water: Designed to keep outside dirt and water away from the transfer case.
- Rigid metal case: The body is formed from deep-drawn sheet steel, giving it a rigid, stress-resistant case.
- Garter spring: Made with cold-drawn steel wire, which SKF selects for superior fluid retention.
- Tested design: Built with a high-quality, tested design and materials for correct fit.
SKF invented the first integrated shaft seal in 1928 and has kept developing new seal designs and bonding techniques since then. Each seal is made to a specific design, and SKF chooses premium materials to suit both the application and the environment it works in.
Signs this seal may need replacing include lubricant seeping around the transfer case input and a transfer case that keeps running low on fluid. Nearby gaskets and seals can also leak, so confirm the source of the leak before you replace any part.
