This oil seal is installed on the front axle of the host tractor. It prevents lubricant leakage from the axle housing and keeps contaminants from entering the bearing cavity. The seal sits between the rotating shaft and the stationary housing, maintaining a fluid-tight barrier under normal operating pressures. A worn seal allows oil to weep past the lip, which can lead to bearing starvation and eventual axle damage. This component is manufactured to the original geometry and material specification, matching the housing bore and shaft surface finish without requiring shimming or adapters.
