FAQ

The TSNX 513 A is designed for plummer block housings of the 513 series, such as the common SNL 513, SNH 513, or SE 513. It is crucial to match the seal size to the housing size number.

A Taconite seal offers significantly superior protection in highly contaminated environments. Its multi-stage labyrinth design, combined with a V-ring, creates a complex path that effectively blocks both solid particles (dust, dirt) and liquids (water, slurry), whereas simpler seals may fail under such conditions.

Yes, the space within the labyrinth of the Taconite seal should be filled with grease. This grease acts as an additional barrier against contaminants. The seal is typically equipped with a grease nipple to allow for periodic re-greasing to purge old grease and contaminants.
