Characteristics/
features |
- radial shaft seal with garter spring
- double lip design
- fitted into a recess in the outer ring
- thermal and chemical stability to withstand high sliding velocities
- suitable for both grease and oil-air lubrication
|
- radial shaft seal with garter spring
- single lip design
- snapped into a recess in the outer ring
- thermal and chemical stability to withstand high sliding velocities
- suitable for both grease and oil-air lubrication
|
- compact single lip design, snapped into a recess in the outer ring
- identical internal geometry as open bearings enables identical basic load rating as for open bearings in same size and higher load carrying capacity compared to standard (C-shaped) designs
- enables total interchangeability of open bearings with those with upgraded seal design (→ SKF Explorer bearings)
- no garter spring
- improved sealing effectiveness
- reduced friction and operating temperature of the seal lip
- thermal and chemical stability to withstand high sliding velocities
- suitable for both grease and oil-air lubrication
