• 40.0 mm inside diameter, 52.0 mm outside diameter, and 7.0 mm thickness for application-specific fitment.
• Dust lip design adds an extra barrier against dirt and debris.
• AS radial shaft seal design with LD swirl type.
• Fits a wide range of Nissan, Honda, Acura, and Isuzu applications, including Honda Accord, Honda Prelude, Honda Odyssey, Acura CL, and Nissan X-Trail.
