Scuffing is often a contamination-and-friction problem. Keeping abrasive particles away from the lip contact track helps protect both the shaft and the seal.
1. Type: Reinforced COMBI seal

41. Service goal: Reduce shaft damage
42. Buyer benefit: Fewer groove-related repeat repairs
If new seals keep failing on the same worn track, dust-driven shaft scuffing may be the root cause. Better dust exclusion helps protect the contact surface before grooves develop.
