CR Services 32527 - OIL SEAL

CR SERVICES part description

Founded in 1878 as Chicago Rawhide, CR Services® has been the leading authority for industrial and automotive seals. The company originally made rawhide leather products until 1928 when it patented the world’s first leather oil seal, a common component in automobiles and industrial equipment up to the 1940s. The company began manufacturing replacement seals under the CR brand in the mid-1950s and in 1971 patented its revolutionary WAVE seal technology. Today, CR continues as an SKF subsidiary specializing in power transmission seals for automotive and industrial applications. The seals are now made of advanced materials, such as proprietary synthetic nitrile rubber, fluoroelastomers, and composite metals, and incorporate the latest innovations in seal design and engineering for unmatched durability and performance.
