Keep Axle Damage at Bay with Wheel Seals
Trucks and trailers depend on wheel seals to keep the wheel bearings safe from the elements. Water, debris, and dirt can all cause damage to the bearing and compromise the lubricating grease that keeps everything running smoothly.
If you only drove through pristine conditions (on smooth asphalt with no obstructions as far as the eye could see), you might not need to change your wheel seals that often. However, truck and trailer drivers know that their vehicles are undergoing a lot of stress on the road, which is why wheel seals are such an important component of your vehicle.
Wheel seals not only protect from outside dirt, but also from wheel-bearing grease that can sneak into a brake disc or drum. This ensures that lubricant isn’t lost while you’re on the move, which will ensure your axles have enough grease to do their job.
