How To Determine Correct Replacement for Grease Seal 8752  

Question:

Replacing 8752. Replacing the seal on an old, 1984 trailer, the spindle surface diameter is 1.67, seal diameter / race diameter is 2.33 LM67048 bearing. With of my seal is 0.4. This seems like a good fit, wondering if will work? The seal ID is 1/100inch larger than the spindle surface which worries me. Thanks in advance.

Expert Reply:

The correct way for you to determine the right replacement grease seal for your 8752 is actually by the inner diameter.

Seal # 168233 does have a 2.332" outer diameter and a 1.688" inner diameter, which you will need to match in order for this seal to be the correct replacement. You mentioned the "spindle surface diameter" of 1.67 but I am not sure where you measured that from. If you take a look at Point B on the accompanying diagram I added you can see exactly where you need to measure in order to find the correct replacement grease seal.

I have added a link to our selection of seals for you to check out once you have determined the inner diameter of the seal you need.
