help SKF Scotseal Classic FAQ
Does the SKF Scotseal Classic need a special installation tool?
Yes. SKF specifies a correctly sized drive plate and centering plug so the seal enters the hub squarely without damage.
How many sealing lips does a Scotseal Classic use?
Its unitized design uses a three-lip sealing element. These include a spring-loaded primary lip, a dirt-exclusion lip, and an outer bumper lip.
What is SKF Bore Tite on a Scotseal Classic?
Bore Tite is an acrylic polymer coating on the seal's outside diameter. It helps fill small imperfections in the hub bore that a plain metal-to-metal press fit might not seal.
Can a Scotseal Classic be reused after removing the truck hub?
No. A wheel-end seal should be replaced once removed, and SKF also calls for a new seal if installation leaves it cocked or damaged.
