Product Overview
Taconite seal (machined cast iron or steel) consists of two rings (one stationary and one rotating), which form a very narrow labyrinth between them.
The rotating labyrinth ring carries an internal, low-friction V-ring seal that seals against the stationary labyrinth ring, blocks contaminants from entering the bearing housing, and contributes to effective purging of grease.
The rotating labyrinth ring, facing the bearing housing, serves to deflect and fling away water.
This compact seal features a shorter axial width compared with conventional types to offer space-saving advantages.
Seals can be supplied to easily fit bearing housings in a range of shaft sizes from 50 mm (1-15/16 in.) to 450 mm (18 in.) as standard.
Key Benefits
- Beyond bearings the group also manufactures industry chain, sprocket and related transmission parts, so these items ship on the same document set.
- Dimensions, material, cage and precision class are confirmed in writing before the order is placed.
- Stock and produced lines are quoted separately so a shutdown can be planned around real dates.
- Non standard sizes can be made to drawing, so a fixed machine envelope is not a dead end.
Who It Is For
Vehicle part importers who want bearings and adjacent driveline items on one order.
Problems It Solves
Splitting a small order across a bearing factory, a clutch factory and a chain factory multiplies freight cost and paperwork.

Application Scenarios
Where It Is Used
- Clutch systems and release assemblies
- Cooling and water pump assemblies
- Starting and charging components
- Timing and transmission drives
- Stainless steel chain and sprocket drives
Materials
Brass, steel,stainless steel. GCr15 is the standard high carbon chrome bearing steel, and GCr15SiMn adds silicon and manganese so that larger rings harden through the section. Case carburised grades are used where shock loading is high. Cage material for this reference is no cage.

Manufacturing Process
How It Is Made
Forging And Turning
Rings are formed and soft turned to the ring geometry.
Heat Treatment
Through hardening or carburising to the working hardness range.
Grinding And Honing
Raceways and faces ground to the tolerance class ordered.
Assembly And Preservation
Rolling elements and cage assembled, then preserved and packed.
Quality Control
What Is Checked
- Bore, outside diameter and width against the tolerance class ordered
- Radial and axial runout on the finished assembly
- Hardness and surface finish after grinding
- Internal clearance and rotation check before preservation
Certifications. Production runs in strict accordance with the ISO9001:2008 standard. Certificate copies for a specific consignment are issued with the shipping documents on request.

Use Guide
Fitting And Service Notes
- Check the shaft and housing seats for size, roundness and damage before opening the packaging.
- Push mounting force through the ring that carries the interference fit, never through the rolling elements.
- Where heat mounting is used, keep the bearing below roughly 120 degrees Celsius and never apply a flame.
- Set clearance or preload as the machine drawing specifies, then fill with the specified lubricant.
- Turn the assembly by hand and listen before the machine is started.
