FAQs
What material is this seal made of?
This seal is constructed from NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber), known for its resistance to oils and moderate temperatures.
What vehicles is this seal compatible with?
It is designed for specific vehicle models including FIAT DUCATO, PEUGEOT BOXER, and CITROËN JUMPER.
What are the key dimensions of this seal?
The seal has an inner diameter of 19.0 mm, an outer diameter of 34.6 mm, and heights of 6.2 mm and 9.2 mm.
Does this seal come with a dust lip?
Yes, this seal features an integrated dust lip to help prevent the ingress of dirt and contaminants.
Can I use this seal in applications other than the specified vehicles?
While equivalent part numbers are provided, it is strongly recommended to use this seal only in the vehicle models for which it is specifically designed to ensure proper fit and function.
How should I prepare the surfaces before installing the seal?
The sealing surfaces on both the shaft and the housing must be clean, smooth, and free from any burrs or damage. Light lubrication with appropriate grease is also recommended.
What does 'equivalent part number' mean?
Equivalent part numbers indicate that other manufacturers produce a seal with the same specifications and intended application.
Troubleshooting
Seal is leaking shortly after installation.
The seal may have been damaged during installation, installed incorrectly (e.g., at an angle), or the mating surfaces may not be clean or smooth. Inspect for damage and re-install carefully, ensuring surfaces are prepared and the seal is seated properly.
Difficulty installing the seal.
Ensure you are using the correct seal driver and applying even pressure. Lubricate the seal lip and the shaft lightly with appropriate grease. Do not force the seal; if resistance is too high, re-check alignment and preparation of the mating surfaces.
Premature wear or failure of the seal.
This could be due to improper lubrication, abrasive contaminants entering the seal (if dust lip is compromised or absent), or operating temperatures exceeding the NBR material's limits. Ensure proper lubrication during installation and check for any damage to the dust lip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility:
This seal is specifically designed for use with FIAT DUCATO, PEUGEOT BOXER, and CITROËN JUMPER models. Verify your vehicle's compatibility and the specific component requiring this seal before installation. Equivalent part numbers include 82012530 and BASLSFSimmerring.
Setup/Installation:
Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic. Ensure the sealing surfaces on both the shaft and the housing are clean, free from burrs, and lubricated with appropriate grease before fitting the seal. Use a proper seal driver to install the seal squarely and to the correct depth. Never use excessive force, as this can damage the seal or the component it protects.
Care:
Seals are typically maintenance-free once installed correctly. However, regular inspection of the surrounding area for any signs of leaks is recommended during routine vehicle maintenance. If leaks are detected, the seal may need replacement.
