To help fight friction and help maximize bearing performance, Timken said it now offers a full line of OE heavy-duty wheel seals and installation tools for the aftermarket. The company’s premium wheel seals are designed to meet the performance demands of low-maintenance wheels.
According to the company, they can help reduce labor expenses and downtime because their design promotes ease of installation on both the inboard and outboard mounted brake drums, the company noted. Timken also offers installation tools including: handle and sleeve; three color-coded adaptor plates (one for each axle type); bearing centering guide; lock washer and nut.
