For grease-lubricated applications SKF Cassette seal design MUD6 is a cassette seal, specifically developed for grease-lubricated heavy-duty applications in harsh environments and tough operating conditions. Also called SKF Mudblock seals. SKF Cassette seals MUD6 are designed for use in grease lubricated applications and provide features including: Rubber outside diameter for reliable seal retention in the bore as well as improved sealing performance Rubber covered inside diameter for improved sealing performance and easy installation Integrated wear sleeve Bumper maintaining the relative position between the seal and the sleeve as well as acting as a barrier against contaminants Auxiliary radial lips for contaminant exclusion Design features All SKF Mudblock seals are designed with an integrated wear sleeve and a rubber inside diameter, but can have any one of a number of sealing lip and auxiliary lip configurations. The elastomeric material is normally nitrile rubber, but the seals are also available in other compounds including fluoro rubber, hydrogenated nitrile rubber or polyacrylate to meet the demands of different operating conditions. Sealing lip materials In addition to its design, the material of a sealing lip can have a significant impact on sealing performance and reliability. SKF, therefore, manufactures seals using a variety of sealing lip materials to meet the needs of different applications.
