Timken 223035 Wheel Seal - Rear

Timken 223035 Wheel Seal Overview

Timken 223035 is a wheel seal built for driveline and axle sealing applications where lubricant retention and contamination control matter. It uses an S-Nitrile sealing material with a reinforced outer case and a ribbed inner diameter to help seat securely on the spindle surface.

For wheel-end service on applications such as Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla, this seal is designed to support clean, stable operation by keeping grease in place and road debris out. The Timken 223035 wheel seal is also cross-referenced to National 223035 for the same application.

Key Features

• S-Nitrile construction for sealing performance in wheel-end service
• Reinforced outer case helps resist installation damage
• Ribbed rubber inner diameter helps seal minor spindle imperfections
• Internal contamination exclusion system helps block debris entry
• Vent holes promote lubricant flow around the seal lip to reduce heat buildup
• Dimensions: 2.058 in. outside diameter, 1.181 in. shaft diameter, 2.047 in. housing bore, 0.276 in. width

Detailed Description

Timken 223035 is a precision wheel seal for axle and hub assemblies that need dependable lubricant control. The seal’s S-Nitrile material, reinforced outer case, and ribbed sealing edge work together to maintain contact at the spindle while helping reduce leakage from wheel-end grease or oil. Its vented design also supports lubricant circulation around the lip, which helps manage heat at the sealing surface.

This part number is a practical choice for service work on vehicles such as Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla when the original seal shows wear, contamination, or leakage. Timken 223035 is sized to match the listed housing bore, shaft diameter, and outside diameter requirements for the application.

What This Wheel Seal Helps Address

• Wheel-end grease or oil leakage
• Contamination entering the hub or axle area
• Seal wear from heat buildup at the lip
• Poor sealing on minor spindle surface imperfections
• Damage from installation stress on the seal case

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify housing bore, shaft diameter, outside diameter, and width before installation. Clean the spindle and seal bore thoroughly, and inspect for scoring, corrosion, or burrs that could affect sealing. Proper seating is important for the Timken 223035 wheel seal to maintain contact and control lubricant loss.

For fitment-based searches, this part is commonly referenced for wheel seal replacement on Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla applications. Confirm the exact axle or hub specification before ordering, and match the part number 223035 to the vehicle’s service requirements.
