Good static sealing effect with low-viscosity or gaseous media
Suitable for heavy external dirt loading
Compensation of thermal expansion, e.g. in light metal housings, very good sealing effect with greater roughness and split housings
Long service life
Dynamic sealing of rotating shafts, independent of direction of rotation
Good static seal between sealing lip and shaft at standstill
Protective lip on the radial shaft seal and axial protective lip on the race against dirt accumulation from outside, can lead to temperature increase due to stronger friction
Protective lip against dirt accumulation from outside
Rubberized outer jacket ensures tight fit and seal to housing bore
Self-retaining
Stronger friction can lead to temperature increase
