Single Lip Contour Riding Seal
with Trash Guard

AELS: Single Lip Contour Riding Seal

This example (see illustration AELS) shows a single lip contour riding seal with a metal trash guard. The seal is bonded to a metal trash guard to provide additional protection. The seal lip rides on a contoured surface. The trash guard protects the rubber lip from abrasion. This seal is primarily used on the AEL series insert bearing.
