Oil Seal.

The seal runs against a rotating shaft to retain lubricant within its housing while excluding dirt and moisture. Once the lip hardens or wears it allows lubricant to weep past the shaft and lets contaminants in, so the seal is renewed whenever the assembly it serves is dismantled.

Frequently asked questions

What does this oil seal (AEU4042) do?
This is an engine oil seal that runs against a rotating shaft to retain lubricant within its housing while keeping dirt and moisture out. It's renewed whenever the engine assembly it serves is dismantled, since a worn or hardened seal lip lets lubricant weep past the shaft.
When should this oil seal be replaced?
Replace it whenever you dismantle the assembly it's fitted to, rather than refitting the old seal, since the sealing lip typically hardens or wears with age and won't reseal reliably once disturbed. Also replace it if you notice oil weeping from the shaft area.
Do I need more than one of these seals for a repair job?
Most applications use a single seal per shaft location, though always check whether your specific assembly uses one seal or a pair before ordering, since seal count varies by design.
