This is a floating seal assembly designed to prevent contamination and lubricant loss in the final drive or slew ring system of Volvo excavators. It is manufactured to meet stringent OEM standards, ensuring superior sealing performance compared to worn or damaged seals that allow ingress of dirt and water. Operators may notice abnormal noise from the drive or slew system, or visible oil leaks around the affected component when these seals begin to fail.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Cross-reference part number with serial number before ordering to confirm fitment. Keep original parts until new ones are confirmed correct. Record part numbers replaced for future reference.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
The first sign of a failing floating seal is often a noticeable increase in noise from the final drive or slew ring, such as grinding or whining sounds. If left unaddressed, the seal's compromised integrity will lead to accelerated wear of internal components due to contamination and lubricant loss. Continued operation with a failed seal risks severe damage to expensive gears and bearings, necessitating costly repairs.
Thoroughly clean the seal grooves and mating surfaces on both the shaft and housing before installation to prevent premature failure. Avoid using excessive force or improper tools when pressing the seal into place, as this can damage the seal lips or housing.
Inspect the surrounding gears, bearings, and lubricant for signs of contamination or wear when replacing floating seals.
