What It Helps Address

• Transmission fluid seepage at the pinion seal area
• Contamination entering the sealed shaft interface
• Wear-related sealing loss during transmission service
• Replacement needs on Cadillac Eldorado and Oldsmobile Toronado drivetrain repairs

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm shaft diameter, outside diameter, and seal width before installation. Inspect the sealing surface and surrounding housing for scoring, corrosion, or debris that could affect sealing performance. Clean the bore thoroughly and install the seal squarely to avoid distortion. Verify the transmission application against the vehicle year and model before final assembly.

Quality Assurance

SKF manufactures seals to high quality standards using premium materials and application-specific designs. The brand’s seal engineering heritage dates back to the first integrated shaft seal, and SKF 16364 reflects that focus on long-term sealing performance in automotive transmission service.
