During gearbox repair or scheduled maintenance, a dependable radial shaft seal helps restore sealing performance and reduce lubricant loss. Choose the right lip style and material to match your oil, temperature, speed, and contamination level.
Helps reduce leaks and oil mist around gearbox shafts
Optional dust lip for dirty maintenance environments
Multiple materials to match common gear oils and service conditions
Custom sizes available for older or non-standard gearboxes
