FAG SS2013 Wheel Seal - Front

FAG SS2013 Wheel Seal Overview

The FAG SS2013 wheel seal is built for wheel-end service where contamination control and grease retention matter. It uses a metal and spring seal design with nitrile sealing material to help protect bearing components from dirt, dust, and moisture.

With a 3.000-inch bearing inside diameter, 2.25-inch bore diameter, 2.254-inch seal outside diameter, and 1.563-inch seal width, this wheel seal is specified for precise wheel-end applications. FAG SS2013 is a direct-fit style service part for technicians looking for accurate dimensions and OE-level sealing performance.

Detailed Description

FAG SS2013 is a wheel seal engineered to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications using materials selected for demanding wheel-end conditions. The seal is designed to keep grease in place while helping prevent dirt, dust, and moisture from reaching the bearing area. For service work on vehicles such as Ford F-150 and Chevrolet Silverado applications, correct seal dimensions are critical, and this part number is sized for precise wheel-end fitment where the listed measurements match the original specification. FAG SS2013 is also referenced by cross numbers 15522 and 472213 for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

• Grease loss at the wheel end
• Contamination entering the bearing area
• Premature wear caused by dirt or moisture intrusion
• Seal replacement during hub or bearing service
• Dimensional mismatch during wheel seal repair

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify bearing inside diameter, bore diameter, seal outside diameter, and seal width before installation. Clean the hub and sealing surfaces thoroughly, and inspect the bearing and spindle area for wear or scoring before pressing in the new seal. Confirm the seal type and application position against the vehicle service information before final assembly. For Ford F-150 and Chevrolet Silverado wheel-end repairs, matching the original seal dimensions is essential for proper sealing performance.

Quality Assurance

FAG designs wheel seals to meet manufacturer specifications and works with suppliers to maintain FAG quality standards. The SS2013 is built for wheel-end protection in demanding service environments where accurate sealing and contamination control are required.
