SKF 11514 Differential Seal - Rear

SKF Differential Seal 11514

SKF 11514 is a differential seal built for driveline sealing performance where the shaft diameter, outside diameter, and sealing surface material must match the application. It uses a nitrile sealing surface for dependable fluid control in differential service, helping maintain lubricant retention at the seal interface.

Key Features

• Part number 11514 differential seal from SKF
• 1.156 shaft diameter for application-specific fitment
• 1.756 outside diameter for proper housing engagement
• 0.250 width for compact differential sealing applications
• Nitrile sealing surface type for oil-resistant sealing performance
• Fits driveline and axle service where a differential seal is required

Detailed Description

SKF has a long history in seal engineering, and this differential seal reflects that experience with a design focused on dimensional accuracy and material selection. The nitrile sealing surface is suited to differential environments where lubricant retention and contamination control are critical. If you are servicing a differential on a Ford, Chevrolet, or Dodge application that calls for SKF 11514, this seal is built to match the required shaft and housing dimensions.

This part cross-references Gates 18647 for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

• Differential gear oil seepage at the seal area
• Contamination entering the differential housing
• Wear-related sealing loss at the shaft interface
• Noise or driveline issues caused by low lubricant level
• Repeat repairs when the original seal no longer holds fluid

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify shaft diameter, outside diameter, and seal width before installation to confirm SKF 11514 matches the differential housing. Inspect the shaft surface for grooves, scoring, or corrosion before fitting the new seal, and clean the sealing bore thoroughly so the nitrile lip seats evenly. For Ford, Chevrolet, and Dodge driveline service, confirm the replacement seal matches the original part number and dimensions before assembly.

Quality Assurance

SKF designs and manufactures seals to high quality standards, using premium materials and application-specific construction to support long service life and safe operation in driveline use.
