PROPSHAFT SEAL

$10.68

Description

Sealing Function: The propshaft seal creates a tight barrier to prevent leakage of lubricants (such as transmission fluid or differential oil) and to keep out water, dirt, and other contaminants.
Material Composition: Typically made of durable rubber or synthetic materials, the seal is designed to withstand wear, heat, and chemical exposure for long-term reliability.
Sealing Mechanism: It features a specialized lip or sealing edge that fits tightly against the surface of the propeller shaft, effectively blocking fluid leakage.
Pressure Resistance: The seal is engineered to withstand both internal and external pressure changes, ensuring consistent sealing performance under varying conditions.
Temperature Tolerance: Designed to operate in environments with fluctuating temperatures, the seal maintains its integrity across a wide range of operating conditions.
Installation: Proper installation is crucial for effective sealing. The seal is typically pressed or fitted into a housing or bore within the transmission or differential housing, requiring precise alignment.
Maintenance: Regular inspection is essential to detect signs of wear, damage, or leakage. Damaged seals should be promptly replaced to prevent fluid loss and potential damage to drivetrain components.
