NEW SEAL IMPROVES PERFORMANCE
MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY under extreme
operating conditions is critical for
off-highway machinery. Downtime
and malfunctions lead to reductions
in profitability. Freudenberg Sealing
Technologies developed the Cassette-S4
off-highway industrial seal to meet the
demands of mobile machinery markets
by enabling long-term reliability and
power in harsh conditions with no speed,
temperature, or pressure limitations.
The Cassette-S4 features a threecomponent sealing configuration that
protects all functional parts in a single
component, reducing part complexity and
accidental damage during installation.
Robust to contamination and damage due
to handling, the Cassette-S4 radial shaft
seal is made up of multiple components.
"They're easier to install and to
replace since the critical running surface
and delicate oil lip is internal," said
Brett Randall, Account Manager for
Freudenberg NOK-Sealing Solutions.
With a traditional single element seal,
which runs directly on the shaft, the
responsibility has always been shared
between the seal supplier and the shaft
supplier. Since the finished shaft surface
and the oil lip are inside the seal and selfcontained, the whole sealing system is
provided by the sealing supplier. When
a cassette seal eventually needs to be
replaced, the customer doesn't have to
consider resurfacing the shaft.
Freudenberg engineers developed
the more robust seal to handle harsh
environments but still allow for large
equipment to reach the speeds required
by end users. The company's Cassette-S1,

S2, and S3 for wheel hub and axle shaft
sealing applications have been offered
for decades.
