Detailed Product Overview

FAG SS2812 is a wheel seal engineered to meet vehicle manufacturer specifications using high-quality materials selected for wheel-end sealing performance. The seal is designed to help keep dirt, dust, and moisture out of the bearing area while reducing grease loss over the service life of the bearing. Because wheel seal requirements vary by application, position, and vehicle class, the listed dimensions and seal construction should be matched carefully to the original part.

This part cross-references Remy 17617 for the same application. When comparing replacement options for wheel seal service, verify the bore diameter, outside diameter, seal width, and seal type against the original component before installation. FAG SS2812 is a strong fit for buyers looking for a precise wheel seal replacement for axle and hub service on vehicles such as Honda Civic and Ford F-150 when the application calls for these exact specifications.

Common Problems This Seal Helps Address

• Grease leakage at the wheel end
• Contamination from road dirt, dust, and moisture
• Premature bearing wear caused by seal failure
• Noise or rough operation from compromised wheel-end lubrication
• Incorrect seal fit due to mismatched dimensions

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the original seal dimensions before installation, including bore diameter, outside diameter, and width. Inspect the hub, spindle, and bearing surfaces for wear or scoring, and replace damaged components as needed. Clean the sealing surfaces thoroughly and install the seal squarely to avoid distortion or premature leakage. For best results, match the seal type and material to the vehicle’s original wheel-end specification.
