CORTECO 12018729 ACM RWDR-KASSETTE 173x200x15.5/17 Cassette Wheel Hub Seal

CORTECO 12018729 ACM RWDR-KASSETTE 173x200x15.5/17 Cassette Wheel Hub Seal

CORTECO 12018729 ACM RWDR-KASSETTE 173x200x15.5/17 is a cassette radial shaft seal designed for wheel hubs and heavy duty transmission systems operating in agricultural machinery exposed to contamination, moisture and demanding working conditions.

The RWDR-KASSETTE sealing design is engineered for applications requiring increased protection against:

• mud
• dust
• water
• fertilizers
• transmission oil
• abrasive contamination

Cassette seals differ from standard radial shaft seals due to their multi element sealing construction. The integrated sealing assembly includes:

• multi lip sealing system
• protective running surfaces
• dust exclusion elements
• tension spring
• integrated protection of the sealing area

This construction reduces contamination ingress into the hub assembly and stabilizes sealing performance during long term operation under heavy mechanical load.

The CORTECO 12018729 model is manufactured from ACM material. Polyacrylate rubber ACM is used in applications operating:

• at elevated temperatures
• in contact with transmission oils
• in industrial grease environments
• under variable operating temperatures

ACM material provides resistance to thermal aging and maintains stable operating parameters in continuously loaded mechanical systems.

The RWDR-K7 designation identifies a cassette type radial shaft sealing system developed for severe operating conditions typical for:

• drive axle hubs
• agricultural machinery
• off road transmissions
• heavy duty drive systems
• powered axle assemblies

The CORTECO 12018729 ACM RWDR-KASSETTE 173x200x15.5/17 seal is used in machinery produced by:

• DEUTZ-FAHR
• HURLIMANN
• LAMBORGHINI
• SAME

OEM number:
21529124030

The phrase CORTECO 12018729 ACM RWDR-KASSETTE 173x200x15.5/17 cassette wheel hub seal is frequently searched in axle repair applications, transmission servicing and agricultural machinery maintenance involving heavily contaminated operating environments.

Construction and operational characteristics

CORTECO cassette seals are designed for applications requiring increased bearing protection and reduced wear of sealing surfaces.

Main construction features:

• multi lip cassette sealing design
• integrated dust exclusion zone
• spring loaded sealing lip
• protection against mud and water
• stable operation under heavy loads
• resistance to transmission oils
• extended operational lifespan
• reduced contamination ingress

The cassette sealing construction improves the durability of the hub assembly and reduces the risk of bearing damage caused by contamination exposure.

Industrial application context

RWDR-KASSETTE sealing systems are used in heavy mechanical applications requiring high contamination resistance and stable operation under dynamic load conditions.

The CORTECO 12018729 model is commonly installed in:

• agricultural wheel hubs
• drive axles
• powered axle assemblies
• off road transmissions
• working machinery
• heavy transport systems
• transmission assemblies

Cassette sealing systems are especially valued in agriculture and industrial sectors due to their ability to protect bearing assemblies and reduce failure caused by dirt ingress.
