Seal Selection for Construction and Mining Travel Systems

Industry: Construction / Mining

A procurement checklist for seals used around travel reducers, axles and wheel ends in construction and mining equipment.

Application overview

Review the assembly drawing and contamination exposure before choosing a replacement. Rotary shaft seals and hydraulic rod sealing arrangements perform different functions and should not be treated as interchangeable parts.

Information for selection

  • Equipment and assembly reference
  • drawing and complete dimensions
  • motion type
  • lubricant or hydraulic fluid
  • pressure
  • temperature
  • mud and water exposure
  • maintenance access.

Product and drawing review

Compare published dimensions and request review of the actual installation. A listed product family is a starting point, not confirmation that every product fits this application.
