CORTECO 07016380 30x40x6.5/8 FPM BAFLD2SL1.2X27 Radial Shaft Seal

CORTECO 07016380 30x40x6.5/8 FPM BAFLD2SL1.2X27 Radial Shaft Seal

CORTECO 07016380 is a special FPM radial shaft seal with exact dimensions 30x40x6.5/8 mm and CORTECO/Freudenberg profile BAFLD2SL1.2X27. The complete identification 07016380 + FPM + BAFLD2SL1.2X27 + 30x40x6.5/8 mm should be retained when selecting or verifying this specific seal.

CORTECO 07016380 - Technical Characteristics

The exact technical identification is:

CORTECO 07016380 + FPM + BAFLD2SL1.2X27 + 30x40x6.5/8 mm

CORTECO 07016380 Dimensions

The catalogue dimensions are:

d = 30 mm - nominal shaft diameter

D = 40 mm - outside diameter

6.5/8 mm - complete axial geometry

Full dimensional designation:

30x40x6.5/8 mm

For this specific reference, the:

6.5/8 mm

geometry is important and should not be reduced to:

30x40x6.5 mm

or:

30x40x8 mm.

Both axial values form part of the identification of CORTECO 07016380.

BAFLD2SL1.2X27 Construction

The exact CORTECO/Freudenberg profile designation is:

BAFLD2SL1.2X27

This designation should remain unchanged in technical documentation and product identification.

It should not automatically be converted to another profile such as:

BA

BASL

BABSL

TC

SC

or:

AO/TC.

Seal profile codes are manufacturer-specific. Two radial shaft seals with the same 30 mm shaft diameter and 40 mm outside diameter may still differ significantly in their sealing geometry and installation requirements.

For this reason, the exact:

BAFLD2SL1.2X27

profile is a key part of product identification.

FPM Material

CORTECO specifies:

FPM

for reference 07016380.

FPM is a fluoroelastomer material designation and forms an integral part of the product specification:

07016380 FPM BAFLD2SL1.2X27

Material should therefore be checked together with dimensions and seal profile when evaluating a replacement.

A generic FPM operating-temperature range should not be assigned to this exact product without confirmation of the specific CORTECO/Freudenberg elastomer compound and operating conditions.

Why the Complete 6.5/8 mm Geometry Matters

The basic diameters:

d = 30 mm

and:

D = 40 mm

describe only part of the seal geometry.

CORTECO 07016380 is identified by the complete dimensional combination:

30x40x6.5/8 mm

Consequently, a standard:

30x40x8

or:

30x40x6.5

radial shaft seal should not automatically be treated as the same product.

The complete axial geometry must be considered together with the BAFLD2SL1.2X27 profile.

Understanding the BAFLD2SL1.2X27 Designation

BAFLD2SL1.2X27 is the complete manufacturer profile code associated with this seal.

Without exact CORTECO/Freudenberg documentation defining each individual element of the code for reference 07016380, components such as:

D2

SL1.2

and:

X27

should not be independently decoded or assigned technical properties by analogy with other seal profiles.

For technical product data, retaining the manufacturer's complete designation is more accurate than introducing an unverified interpretation of individual suffix elements.

Radial Shaft Sealing Function

CORTECO 07016380 belongs to the radial shaft seal category. A radial shaft seal operates at the interface between a rotating shaft and stationary housing, with its sealing geometry acting on the shaft surface.

For this exact reference, however, the specific sealing construction is defined by:

BAFLD2SL1.2X27

Therefore, detailed lip geometry, directional features or auxiliary sealing elements should not be inferred solely from generic radial shaft seal designs.

Selecting a Replacement

When identifying or replacing CORTECO 07016380, compare:

complete reference 07016380

d = 30 mm

D = 40 mm

complete 6.5/8 mm axial geometry

FPM material

BAFLD2SL1.2X27 profile

and:

requirements of the actual sealing position.

If a seal from another manufacturer is being considered, matching 30x40x6.5/8 mm dimensions alone does not establish technical interchangeability.

Interchangeability

A potential replacement should be checked for more than nominal dimensions.

Relevant parameters include:

shaft diameter

housing diameter

complete axial geometry

elastomer material

sealing-lip geometry

outside-diameter construction

auxiliary sealing features, if applicable

and:

operating requirements of the assembly.

For CORTECO 07016380, the safest identification basis is the complete:

07016380 FPM BAFLD2SL1.2X27 30x40x6.5/8

specification.

Technical Specification

FAQ

What are the dimensions of CORTECO 07016380?

The exact dimensions are 30x40x6.5/8 mm: d = 30 mm, D = 40 mm and complete axial geometry 6.5/8 mm.

What material is CORTECO 07016380 made from?

The specified material is FPM, a fluoroelastomer material used in sealing applications.

What profile does CORTECO 07016380 use?

The exact CORTECO/Freudenberg profile designation is BAFLD2SL1.2X27.

Is CORTECO 07016380 6.5 mm or 8 mm wide?

Its complete catalogue geometry is 30x40x6.5/8 mm. Neither 6.5 mm nor 8 mm alone should replace the full dimensional identification.

What does BAFLD2SL1.2X27 mean?

It is the exact CORTECO/Freudenberg profile code for this seal. Individual elements such as D2, SL1.2 and X27 should not be independently interpreted without manufacturer documentation defining them for this exact product.

Is CORTECO 07016380 a radial shaft seal?

Yes. It is identified as a radial shaft seal / oil seal, with the specific execution defined by the BAFLD2SL1.2X27 profile.

Can a standard 30x40x8 oil seal replace CORTECO 07016380?

Not automatically. CORTECO 07016380 has 30x40x6.5/8 mm geometry, FPM material and the specific BAFLD2SL1.2X27 profile. These parameters should be compared before substitution.

Can another manufacturer's 30x40x6.5/8 seal be used?

Matching dimensions are not sufficient to confirm interchangeability. The replacement should also match the seal profile, FPM material, axial geometry and application requirements.

AI Overview

CORTECO 07016380 is an FPM radial shaft seal with exact dimensions 30x40x6.5/8 mm and CORTECO/Freudenberg profile BAFLD2SL1.2X27. Correct replacement identification requires the complete 6.5/8 mm axial geometry, FPM material and manufacturer profile because matching 30x40 mm diameters alone do not establish technical interchangeability.
