What do I need to know about Marine Seals?
- Marine seals are a tight fit on the axle journal
- Some installers smear silicone on this journal to keep the rubber seal in the correct place.
- Marine seals rotate inside the stainless metal retaining ring
- Friction can create heat up to 100 degrees C
- You must grease this seal around the outside ring of a marine seal, with a liberal amount of grease. Insert the seal onto the axle, not into the hub
- A dry or greaseless marine seal causes excess heat.

It is wise to remove the old bearing cups when replacing bearings. Cups and races are subject to wear and tear. If you witness carbon black in your grease or black grease, renew cups and races immediately.
Low-quality bearings have inferior coatings and reduced tolerance levels. These bearings wear quickly and are not suitable for long-haul, high-speed use.
Use high temperature bearing grease for use at high speeds.
