Matching seal (radial shaft seal)

280 × 500 × 20 mm

Other common widths: 280 × 500 × 15 mm

Seals this size are often made to order; send us the housing size and we'll confirm together.

The seal's inner diameter matches the shaft (280 mm) and its outer diameter matches the housing bore (500 mm); the width depends on the space in the housing. NBR (double lip, TC type) is recommended for general use and FKM (Viton) for high temperatures.
