SKF 11378 Shaft Seal Specifications
The SKF 11378 is a CRW1 rotary shaft seal built for engine repair and maintenance. It fits a 1.125 inch shaft inside a 2.25 inch bore with a .25 inch width. Mechanics and technicians use it to retain lubricants and exclude contaminants in rotating assemblies.
Pressure and Speed Limits
This nitrile rubber lip seal handles a maximum pressure of 10 psi. It is rated for surface speeds up to 5.57 mps and rotational speeds up to 3,720 RPM. The design suits animal and vegetable oils, diesel, gasoline, greases, hot water, light heating oil and mineral oils. Exceeding these limits can cause premature lip wear or leakage.
Installation Notes
Press the seal squarely into the bore using a suitable driver to avoid cocking the metal case. The carbon steel garter spring must stay seated behind the lip during assembly. Nitrile material resists the listed fluids, but chemical attack or shaft damage often causes early failure if surfaces are not clean and within tolerance.
