The Corteco 12018360B is a wheel hub shaft seal designed to prevent lubricant leakage from the wheel hub assembly. This seal is critical for maintaining proper lubrication of the wheel bearings, ensuring smooth rotation and preventing premature wear. It's commonly used in the suspension and steering systems of various vehicles. This high-quality seal is manufactured in Hungary and measures 60 x 82 x 60 mm. Its robust construction and precise fit contribute to extended bearing life, reduced maintenance, and enhanced vehicle safety. This seal's job is pretty straightforward: it keeps grease in and dirt out. It sits right where the wheel hub assembly and the axle shaft meet. Think of it like a really important gasket—it prevents lubricant from leaking out of the hub and keeps water, road grit, and everything else from getting in and damaging the bearings. It’s a pretty simple part, but it does a big job. It’s a key component within the wheel hub assembly itself. The hub is what the wheel actually attaches to, and the seal is one of the things that allows it to spin smoothly and reliably. It doesn’t directly make the car go, but it’s essential for making sure the wheel spins freely without grinding or failing. You’ll notice if one goes bad because it usually leads to a contaminated wheel bearing. Because it protects the wheel bearing. Those bearings are expensive to replace, and a failed bearing can really mess things up, potentially leading to a loss of control. The seal acts like a shield against the elements and keeps everything running smoothly. If the seal fails, the bearing can wear out quickly, leading to noise, vibrations, and eventually, complete failure. You’ll notice if you have a failing seal because you might see grease slinging around, or you'll start to hear a growling or humming noise coming from the wheel area, especially when you turn. We carry a good selection of these at Fixparts Online, and getting a new one installed when you're doing other work on the hubs is a smart preventative measure.
