MileMaker Seals for Commercial Trucks and Trailers

The MileMaker portfolio of wheel seals from Freudenberg-NOK Sealing Technologies help heavy-duty vehicle manufacturers of trucks and trailers meet renewed demands for better fuel economy, longer service life and increased wheel durability.

• Made of a proprietary material that reduces friction and lowers torque 50% more than competitors’ seals
• Average fuel savings of $1,000 per commercial truck and trailer combination over the life of the seals (calculation was based on a typical commercial configuration of 10 seals –  fuel over 500,000 miles) 
• Withstands operating temperatures up to 350 F
• Compatible with mineral and synthetic oils, and grease lubricants 
• Seals have an integrated lathed, ground and polished wear sleeve running surface that reduces friction, lowers torque and promotes a cooler running surface for the main lip seal
• Incorporates patented dirt exclusion fins that assist with keeping contamination away from the seal
• Lubed rubber OD (outer diameter) and ID (inner diameter) design eases installation force, which results in less heat generation and increased seal life, and seals any minor hubs or spindle imperfections
• Seal design has low internal torque aided by an internal lubricant, which translates to lower internal heat generation, improved wear resistance and fuel economy
