One of the main advantages of hex head self-tapping sheet metal screws is their versatility
The care taken during the installation process will pay off by allowing the seal to work quietly and operate efficiently behind the scenes of your application.
J: Additional code is added here as an identifier when two or more seals have exactly the same type codes and dimensional numbers.
Most ERIKS oil seals, such as the types M, MST, R and RST, are made of NBR as standard.
Seals, including oil seals, have undergone a great development in recent years and are totally unlike the original product. PTFE has taken over the oil seals market for modern engines mainly because traditional oil seals started causing more and more problems.

If you cannot see the outer end of the seal, remove the timing-belt cover or chain cover (not the belt or chain) and possibly the water pump (See Replacing a water pump ) to reveal it. On an engine with a belt-driven overhead camshaft , remove the belt and its drive sprocket .
