How to Pick Out a Replacement Grease Seal for a Trailer Hub
Updated 02/08/2016 | Published 02/07/2016 >
Question:
Hi, I am looking for double lip grease seals for a straight 1inch trailer spindle. I dont understand some of the numbering systems for seal identifying. If there are more than one seal for a straight 1inch spindle, please let me know what other info will be required to correctly identify the seal that I would need. Thanks for your help

Expert Reply:
For a trailer spindle that is 1 inch in diameter where the grease seal rides the only option we have is the part # CE16305A which has an outer diameter of 1.78 inches.
You will need to measure the outer diameter of the spindle on your trailer and verify it is exactly 1 inch and then measure the inner diameter of where the seal installs in the hub to determine which seal you would need.
If you have different dimensions you would need to check out the link I attached to see what would be recommended. You will need to select your dimensions from the filters.
