Description
When you start seeing gear oil spots under your tractor or notice the front differential getting noisy, it’s time to replace those front axle seals. A leaking seal doesn’t just waste oil—it lets dirt and water into your differential where they’ll tear up those expensive gears and bearings. This seal keeps your MFWD system sealed up tight so you can keep pulling through tough conditions without worry.
What You’re Getting
- 46mm x 65mm x 15.7mm dimensions that fit ZF APL345 axles perfectly
- Nitrile rubber construction with a reinforced metal case that won’t crack or tear
- Advanced lip design that maintains contact even under high torque loads
- Temperature range from -40°F to 250°F handles everything from winter fieldwork to summer hay season
- CORTECO manufacturing means you’re getting the same quality as the original seal
Built for Real Farm Work
This seal fits tractors with ZF APL345 front axles, which you’ll find on Ford 10 Series and TW Series machines, Case IH models from the 43 Series up through the 95 Series, and John Deere 40, 50, and 55 Series tractors. These are the workhorses handling everything from heavy tillage to loader work, where four-wheel drive traction makes the difference between getting the job done and getting stuck.
Made to Last
Farm equipment seals take a beating from temperature swings, chemical exposure, and constant rotation under load. This seal’s built with materials that resist breakdown from gear oil and hydraulic fluid while staying flexible enough to maintain contact as components wear slightly over time.
Good to Know
You’ll need to pull the axle shaft to replace this seal, so it’s smart to do both sides at the same time. Clean out the seal bore thoroughly and check for any nicks or wear that might cause the new seal to leak. A light coat of gear oil on the seal lip during installation helps it seat properly without damage.
