This particular oil seal is designed to accommodate a shaft diameter of 50mm while sealing against a housing with an outer diameter of 90mm, ensuring tight closure and effective sealing. The 10mm width is optimal for creating a sufficient sealing surface to prevent leakage while maintaining a low profile in installations.
1. Leak Prevention One of the primary functions of a hub oil seal is to prevent oil leaks. If the oil seal fails, the lubricant can escape, leading to insufficient lubrication of the bearings and other critical components. This can result in increased wear and tear, decreased performance, and eventually, catastrophic failure.
