When gearboxes and reducers run in dust, vibration, and continuous duty, a heavy-duty radial shaft seal helps stabilize lubrication and reduce leak recurrence after repair.
Dust-lip option for abrasive contamination
Wear-resistant compounds for extended service life
Spring-energized lip to maintain sealing force
Custom sizes for rebuilds and non-standard housings
