Rotary Shaft Seal 12x22x6 NBR BABSL - Double Lip Oil Seal

Applications of the 12x22x6 BABSL Rotary Shaft Seal

The 12x22x6 NBR BABSL rotary shaft seal is a radial oil seal designed for effective sealing of rotating shafts and spindles in industrial and automotive applications. The double lip design with an additional dust lip provides reliable protection against oil leakage while preventing external contaminants such as dust and dirt from entering the system.

This shaft seal is commonly used in engines, gearboxes, pumps, reducers and industrial machinery where variable operating conditions occur, including changes in temperature, oil pressure and rotational speed. The BABSL profile is especially suitable for environments with increased contamination.

Advantages of the BABSL Double Lip Oil Seal

The NBR BABSL oil seal offers high durability and consistent sealing performance during both operation and standstill. The integrated tension spring ensures constant radial pressure of the sealing lip on the shaft, maintaining long-term sealing efficiency.

Made from NBR (nitrile butadiene rubber), the seal provides excellent resistance to mineral oils, greases and standard industrial lubricants. The metal reinforcing ring ensures secure seating in the housing and dimensional stability during installation and operation.

Main Product Description

The 12x22x6 NBR BABSL rotary shaft seal is a reliable technical sealing solution for rotating shafts exposed to oils, greases and environmental contamination. Its design combines an elastic sealing lip with a metal reinforcing ring, ensuring stable performance under dynamic and static conditions.

The double lip configuration significantly improves sealing efficiency by adding a dust lip that protects the primary sealing edge. This makes the BABSL oil seal a preferred choice for machines and devices requiring long service life, operational reliability and resistance to demanding working conditions.
