SKF Wheel Seal P/N:12545
Help keep lubricant in and dirt and water out of the front wheel hub with the SKF wheel seal 17145. It is listed as a front-position replacement for the 1946-1950 Dodge WD15. See the Buyer's Guide tab for complete application and engine details.
SKF builds this seal from a tested design and materials chosen for correct fit, with construction aimed at shielding the wheel end from dirt and water.
SKF has long been a leader in the design and development of seals, and it invented the first integrated shaft seal in 1928. It has kept pioneering new designs and bonding techniques since then. Its seals are made to specific designs using premium materials, selected so each seal has the right properties for its application and environment. SKF seals have been on the road for more than a hundred years, keeping lubricants in and contaminants out.
Signs a wheel seal may need replacing: lubricant seeping from the hub, residue on the wheel or brake components, or dirt and water in the bearing area during service. If a failed seal is the cause, this part replaces it. It is good practice to fit a new seal whenever the hub is taken apart for bearing service.
