Equipment

Shell Gadus S2 3HAC042536-001 Grease
Rotating sealings
The following procedures describe how to fit rotating sealings.
CAUTION
Please observe the following before commencing any assembly of sealings:
• Protect the sealing during transport and mounting, especially the main lip
on radial sealings.
• Keep the sealing in its original wrappings or protect it well before actual
mounting.
• The fitting of sealings and gears must be carried out on clean workbenches.
• Use a protective sleeve for the main lip during mounting, when sliding over
threads, keyways or other sharp edges.
• Do not lubricate a static side of a sealing with grease, since this may result
in movement of the sealing during operation.
The only exception for lubrication of static sides of a sealing, is to use P-80
rubber lubrication gel against certain aluminium surfaces. If usage of P-80
is relevant, it is stated in the repair procedures.
Radial sealings
A radial sealing consists of a flexible rubber lip bonded to a rigid metal case. Only
one side of the sealing is static with a metal insert.
