CORTECO 19035252 FPM RHTC 40x55x7 mm Radial Shaft Seal

CORTECO 19035252 FPM RHTC 40x55x7 mm Radial Shaft Seal

CORTECO 19035252 is an FPM radial shaft seal with dimensions 40x55x7 mm and CORTECO profile RHTC. The current aftermarket reference is also listed as CORTECO 19035252B, with commercial number 82035252. The seal features a right-hand directional sealing structure and is catalogued in confirmed HONDA applications as a front crankshaft seal.

Technical Data - CORTECO 19035252

CORTECO 19035252 - Precise Product Identification

The complete specification is:

CORTECO 19035252 FPM RHTC 40x55x7 mm

Current aftermarket catalogues may list the product as:

CORTECO 19035252B

with commercial number:

82035252

When selecting a replacement, identification should not be based solely on the 40x55x7 mm dimensions. The FPM material, RHTC profile and right-hand directional sealing structure are also important technical characteristics.

What Does FPM Mean?

CORTECO 19035252 is manufactured from FPM, a fluoroelastomer material.

FPM is widely used in technical shaft sealing applications where suitable resistance to oils, fuels, elevated temperatures and demanding operating conditions may be required.

Seal selection should consider factors such as:

• operating medium,
• operating temperature,
• shaft speed,
• lubrication conditions,
• seal arrangement,
• equipment or vehicle manufacturer requirements.

A universal operating temperature range should not be assigned to this exact CORTECO reference solely from the general properties of FPM.

CORTECO RHTC Profile

The confirmed CORTECO profile for reference 19035252 is:

RHTC

Catalogue data also identifies a right-hand directional sealing structure.

This directional design is an important characteristic of the product. A replacement should therefore be compared not only by:

40x55x7 mm + FPM

but also by:

RHTC profile + right-hand directional structure

The individual letters in RHTC should not be decoded using another manufacturer's nomenclature unless an authoritative CORTECO profile definition confirms the meaning. Seal profile designations are not universal between manufacturers.

CORTECO 19035252 Dimensions

Confirmed dimensions are:

• inner diameter: 40 mm
• outer diameter: 55 mm
• width: 7 mm

Complete dimensions:

40x55x7 mm

The 40 mm inner diameter corresponds to the nominal shaft diameter, while the 55 mm outer diameter corresponds to the nominal housing bore.

Right-Hand Directional Sealing Structure

CORTECO 19035252 is specified with a right-hand directional sealing structure, sometimes described in catalogue terminology as Right-hand Twist.

This should not be confused with a conventional screw thread used to install the seal.

It is a design feature associated with the sealing surface and its interaction with the rotating shaft.

For this reason, shaft rotation direction and the directional design of the original seal should be considered when selecting an equivalent product.

CORTECO 19035252 as a Crankshaft Seal

In automotive catalogues, CORTECO 19035252B is classified as a front crankshaft radial shaft seal in confirmed HONDA applications.

This means that, for the relevant applications, the seal operates at the front side of the crankshaft.

However, this application should not be generalized to every FPM RHTC seal measuring 40x55x7 mm.

Vehicle compatibility should be confirmed using the OE reference, vehicle model, engine and appropriate catalogue data.

HONDA OE References

Confirmed HONDA OE references associated with CORTECO 19035252B include:

HONDA 91212-PWA-003

HONDA 91212-RE2-E01

These OE numbers provide important additional identification points.

The product can therefore be searched using either the CORTECO reference or the original equipment number.

HONDA Applications

Aftermarket catalogue data associates CORTECO 19035252B with selected versions from HONDA vehicle families including:

• Honda Civic,
• Honda Jazz / Fit,
• Honda Insight.

Exact compatibility depends on the vehicle version, engine and drivetrain configuration.

Fitment should therefore be verified using the OE number or vehicle-specific catalogue data before installation.

CORTECO 19035252 vs 19035252B

Two reference formats may be encountered:

CORTECO 19035252

and

CORTECO 19035252B

Current aftermarket catalogues commonly use:

19035252B

The associated commercial number is:

82035252

When searching for the product, it is useful to consider all three references while confirming the core specification:

FPM RHTC 40x55x7 mm

Is Every 40x55x7 Oil Seal Interchangeable?

No.

Identical nominal dimensions do not automatically mean identical construction.

CORTECO 19035252 has the specific combination:

40x55x7 mm + FPM + RHTC + right-hand directional structure

Another 40x55x7 mm radial shaft seal may differ in:

• elastomer material,
• profile,
• sealing lip design,
• directional structure,
• intended application,
• operating characteristics.

Dimensions alone are therefore insufficient to confirm interchangeability.

Can an NBR 40x55x7 Seal Replace CORTECO 19035252?

CORTECO 19035252 should not automatically be replaced with an NBR seal.

The confirmed original specification uses FPM.

NBR and FPM are different elastomer groups with different material properties.

Changing the elastomer requires verification against the operating medium, temperature and other application conditions.

How to Select a Replacement for CORTECO 19035252

When comparing an alternative radial shaft seal, verify at least:

• 40 mm shaft diameter,
• 55 mm housing bore,
• 7 mm width,
• FPM material,
• RHTC profile,
• right-hand directional sealing structure,
• operating medium,
• operating temperature,
• shaft speed,
• shaft rotation direction,
• requirements of the specific application.

For HONDA applications, also verify:

HONDA 91212-PWA-003

or

HONDA 91212-RE2-E01

Why Is the Directional Structure Important?

Directional shaft seals are designed with sealing features related to the intended direction of shaft rotation.

A seal with identical dimensions and material but a different directional structure should therefore not automatically be considered equivalent.

For CORTECO 19035252, the right-hand structure forms part of the technical product identification.

This is particularly important when replacing a crankshaft seal, where shaft rotation and the original seal design should be respected.

Installation Recommendations

Before installation, inspect the shaft surface and housing bore carefully.

The sealing surface should be free from:

• corrosion,
• burrs,
• sharp edges,
• excessive wear,
• contamination.

Protect the sealing lip from threads, splines, grooves and sharp shaft features during installation.

The seal should be pressed evenly into the housing using a suitable installation tool.

For a directional seal such as CORTECO 19035252, correct installation orientation should also be maintained according to the original application.
