FAG SS2070 Wheel Seal - Front, Front Inner or Rear Outer

FAG SS2070 Wheel Seal Overview

The FAG SS2070 wheel seal is built for wheel-end service where contamination control and grease retention matter. It uses nitrile sealing material with a rubber body, spring, and auxiliary lip to help protect bearing components from dirt, dust, and moisture.

Compatible With select BMW 535d, BMW 535d xDrive, BMW 740Ld xDrive, and Volkswagen Vanagon front and front inner applications, this seal is sized to match the specified wheel-end dimensions for the listed vehicles.

Detailed Description

FAG SS2070 is a wheel seal engineered to help keep wheel-end assemblies clean and properly lubricated. The seal design is focused on blocking contamination while reducing grease loss over the service life of the bearing. For fitment-sensitive repairs, the listed dimensions and seal type are important because wheel seals vary by application, position, and vehicle class. This part cross-references National 225500 for the same application.

Vehicle coverage includes 2014-2016 BMW 535d front, 2014-2016 BMW 535d xDrive front, 2015 BMW 740Ld xDrive front, and Volkswagen Vanagon front and front inner applications from 1980-1991. It also appears in applications referenced by Schaeffler Global Number 413 2070 100.

What It Helps Address

• Grease leakage at the wheel end
• Contamination from dirt, dust, and moisture
• Wear caused by compromised bearing lubrication
• Seal replacement during front hub or bearing service
• Fitment-specific wheel-end sealing needs on BMW and Volkswagen applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the bearing inside diameter, bore diameter, seal outside diameter, and seal width before installation. Match the seal type and position to the vehicle service location, especially on front and front inner applications. Clean the sealing surface thoroughly and inspect the hub and bearing area for wear or damage before installing the new seal.

Quality Assurance

FAG designs wheel seals to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications and works with suppliers to maintain FAG quality standards. The seal construction is selected to support reliable wheel-end protection in demanding service conditions.
