- Rigid metal case: The body is formed from deep drawn sheet steel, creating a rigid, stress-resistant case.
- Protection against dirt and water: The seal is designed to help keep dirt and water away from the lubricated components it seals.
- Garter spring: The garter spring is made from cold drawn steel wire and helps the seal retain fluid.
- Tested for correct fit: SKF builds it from a tested design and high-quality materials so it fits correctly.
SKF invented the first integrated shaft seal in 1928 and has kept developing new seal designs and bonding techniques since then. Each SKF seal is made to a specific design, using premium materials chosen to suit both the application and the environment it works in.
A wheel seal closes the gap between the turning and stationary parts at the wheel. Its lip stays in sliding contact with the mating surface, holding lubricant in and keeping contaminants out. Signs this part may need replacing include lubricant seeping around the wheel or hub, grease or oil residue on nearby brake parts, and a seal lip that is cracked or torn.
