CORTECO 49172280 ACM BASLRDX7 22x47x7 Shaft Seal

CORTECO 49172280 BASLRDX7 is an ACM radial shaft seal measuring 22x47x7 mm, catalogued for the input side of a manual transmission. Dimensions are 22 mm inner diameter, 47 mm outer diameter and 7 mm height. This specific seal has a dust lip and right-hand directional sealing structure. OE reference: BMW/MINI 23117549008.

CORTECO 49172280 ACM BASLRDX7 22x47x7 Manual Transmission Shaft Seal

CORTECO 49172280 BASLRDX7 is a radial shaft seal for the input side of a manual transmission. It measures 22x47x7 mm and is manufactured from ACM, polyacrylate rubber. Catalogue data for this exact reference specify a dust lip and a right-hand directional sealing structure. CORTECO 49172280 corresponds to OE reference BMW/MINI 23117549008.

CORTECO 49172280 - Characteristics

This seal provides dynamic sealing between the rotating transmission shaft and stationary housing. For this specific reference, product identification requires more than the 22x47x7 mm dimensions.

The ACM material, BASLRDX7 design, dust lip and right-hand sealing direction are technically relevant characteristics and should be considered when selecting a replacement.

Dimensions

The catalogue dimensions of CORTECO 49172280 are:

Inner Diameter: 22 mm
Outer Diameter: 47 mm
Height: 7 mm
Dimensions: 22x47x7 mm

All three dimensions must correspond to the installation position. A different shaft seal with the same 22x47x7 mm dimensions is not automatically equivalent if its material, lip geometry or directional sealing structure differs.

BASLRDX7 Construction

The catalogue design designation for CORTECO 49172280 is BASLRDX7.

For this exact reference, catalogue data identify:

Dust Lip: Yes
Sealing Structure Direction: Right-hand
Material: ACM
Installation Position: Transmission input

The directional sealing structure is particularly important when identifying an equivalent. A seal with the opposite directional structure should not automatically be substituted solely because its dimensions are identical.

ACM Material

CORTECO 49172280 is manufactured from ACM, Polyacrylate Rubber. ACM is the specified elastomer for this exact CORTECO reference.

A specific temperature range or universal chemical compatibility should not be inferred solely from generic ACM properties. Actual suitability depends on the lubricant, temperature and operating conditions of the transmission.

Manual Transmission Application

CORTECO 49172280 is catalogued as a shaft seal for a manual transmission, with the installation position identified as the input side.

This is more technically precise than describing the product simply as an automotive oil seal. The application and installation position are relevant when identifying the correct seal for a transmission repair.

BMW and MINI OE 23117549008

CORTECO 49172280 is cross-referenced with:

BMW: 23117549008
MINI: 23117549008
MINI: 23 11 7 549 008

The OE number should be checked when identifying the seal for a specific vehicle or transmission. Vehicle brand alone does not confirm compatibility with every model, engine or gearbox version.

Selection and Interchangeability

When selecting an equivalent for CORTECO 49172280, verify:

Reference: 49172280
Dimensions: 22x47x7 mm
Material: ACM
Design: BASLRDX7
Dust Lip: Yes
Sealing Direction: Right-hand
Installation Position: Manual transmission input
OE Reference: BMW/MINI 23117549008

Matching the dimensions alone does not establish full interchangeability, especially for a shaft seal with a directional sealing structure.

FAQ

What are the dimensions of CORTECO 49172280?

CORTECO 49172280 measures 22x47x7 mm: 22 mm inner diameter, 47 mm outer diameter and 7 mm height.

What material is CORTECO 49172280 made from?

The seal is manufactured from ACM, Polyacrylate Rubber.

What does BASLRDX7 mean for CORTECO 49172280?

BASLRDX7 is the design designation. Catalogue data for this reference specify a dust lip and right-hand directional sealing structure.

Where is CORTECO 49172280 installed?

It is catalogued as a manual transmission shaft seal for the input side of the transmission.

What is the OE number for CORTECO 49172280?

The corresponding OE reference is BMW/MINI 23117549008, also formatted as MINI 23 11 7 549 008.

Is every 22x47x7 shaft seal interchangeable with CORTECO 49172280?

No. Material, sealing design, dust lip, directional structure and operating requirements must also be compared.

Why is the sealing direction important?

A directional sealing structure is designed for a defined shaft rotation direction. Therefore, an otherwise dimensionally identical seal with a different directional structure should not automatically be treated as equivalent.
