Keep wheel bearing grease where it belongs with the SKF wheel seal 18640, a front wheel seal for classic Chevrolets. It fits the 1958-1960 Chevrolet Bel Air, Biscayne and Impala, plus the 1958 Chevrolet Del Ray. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level application details.
SKF has long led in seal design and development. It invented the first integrated shaft seal in 1928 and has kept developing new designs and bonding techniques since then. Each seal is made to a specific design with premium materials, chosen so the seal has the right properties for its application and environment. The job is keeping lubricants in and contaminants out.
Signs a wheel seal may need replacing include grease seeping from around the hub, grease on nearby brake parts, or a seal that is torn or hardened. If a worn seal is the source of the leak, this SKF seal replaces it. Follow the vehicle service information for the correct removal and installation procedure.
