FAG SS2055 Wheel Seal - Front

Wheel Seal for Volkswagen, Audi, and Toyota

FAG SS2055 is a wheel seal built for front wheel-end service on select Volkswagen, Audi, and Toyota applications. It uses a nitrile sealing material with a metal spring and auxiliary lip design to help keep contamination out and retain grease at the bearing.

With OE-style dimensions and application-specific fitment, this seal supports wheel bearing protection on vehicles such as the Volkswagen Jetta, Volkswagen Golf, and Audi 100. The FAG SS2055 is specified for demanding wheel-end environments where bore size, seal width, and sealing profile must match the original setup.

Detailed Description

FAG SS2055 is engineered to seal the wheel end and protect bearing components from dirt, dust, and moisture while helping preserve grease over the service life of the bearing. Its measured dimensions and sealing profile are important for correct wheel-end operation, especially on front axle applications where seal fit and lip design must match the hub and bearing assembly. This part cross-references National 225110 for the same application.

Compatible With select Volkswagen Jetta front applications, Volkswagen Golf front applications, Volkswagen Passat front applications, Volkswagen Corrado front applications, Audi 100 front applications, Audi 100 Quattro front applications, Audi 80 front applications, Audi 90 front applications, and Toyota Tercel front applications. The FAG SS2055 is also listed across additional N/A-position catalog entries for the same global application family.

What This Wheel Seal Helps Address

• Grease loss at the wheel bearing
• Contamination from road dirt and dust
• Moisture intrusion at the wheel end
• Seal wear from incorrect dimensional match
• Front hub sealing issues on listed Volkswagen, Audi, and Toyota models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify bore diameter, seal outside diameter, seal width, and bearing inside diameter before installation. Match the seal to the vehicle position and axle location shown in the fitment data, since wheel seals are application-specific and the wrong profile can affect bearing protection. Inspect the hub, bearing surfaces, and sealing land for wear or damage before assembly.

Quality Assurance

FAG designs wheel seals to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications and works with suppliers to maintain FAG quality standards. The SS2055 is built for the demanding requirements of wheel-end sealing and is specified for the listed vehicle applications.
