The mountain bike fork seal kit from SKF contains two integrated oil seal-dirt scrapers, crush washers and pre-impregnated foam rings. Depending on the fork manufacturer, the kit may consist of two oil seals and two dirt scrapers.
- The integrated dust sealing lip is designed as a first guard against dirt entering the fork, thus preventing contamination of the other components in the fork
- The integrated oil sealing lip prevents oil from exiting the fork
- The special pre-impregnated foam ring within the kit provides enhanced friction reduction to the fork
- User friendly for quick replacement during periodical oil service
- Specifically developed NBR elastomer for reduced and constant friction
Compatibility:
- 32mm and 35mm are available in flangeless and flanged (lipped) options
- If your 32mm RockShox fork is boost, an RS1 or a Bluto then you need to fit the RockShox Boost seals
- 34mm, 36mm, 40mm seals are only available as flangeless seals
- 38mm RS seal kits (wipers & foams only, no crush washers required for RS Forks)
Dual Compound fork seals
The co-moulded combination of compounds, together with improved sealing lip properties, offers enhanced followability on the shaft. In addition, there is a new metal insert and an open wound spring on the dirt scraper lip, effectively preventing the ingress of contaminants. Benefits of the dual compound fork seals are:
- Extended sealing capability
- Improved contamination exclusion
- Reliable protection of the interior fork mechanism
