Keep wheel-bearing lubricant sealed in and road grime out with the SKF Wheel Seal 18772, a front wheel seal for a wide range of classic GM cars and trucks. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1953-1962 Chevrolet Corvette, 1950-1954 Chevrolet Bel Air, 1951-1959 GMC 100 and 150, 1949-1954 Pontiac Chieftain, and 1950-1954 Pontiac Catalina — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full 45-application list. The seal body stays stationary in its bore while the sealing lip rides against the rotating hub/spindle to hold lubricant in and contaminants out.
SKF has been a leader in seal design since inventing the first integrated shaft seal in 1928, building its seals to specific designs and premium materials suited to the application and its environment.
