Transmission front cover

The cover sealing module consists of a cover plate with an outer static seal and an inner rotary shaft seal integrated into the unit.
For the typically large sizes needed at the flywheel side of a transmission, SKF has developed an economical module using assembled static and dynamic sealing elements. Here a separate shaft seal is assembled to the cover ID and an O-ring is installed on the OD.

Features
- Includes a static seal to the outside diameter and a rotary shaft seal
- Full flexibility of rotary shaft seal design (conventional elastomer, PTFE, Low Friction)
- Special “groove” at OD allows use of inexpensive O-ring
Benefits
- Easy to install
- Reliable sealing for long service life
- Low friction designs can be used to minimize fuel consumption and CO2 emissions
-
Cost effective solution as the large stamping must not be moulded directly
