Reduce Fuel Consumption and CO2 Emissions with the Low Friction Simmerring

Freudenberg’s Simmerrings seal rotating shafts reliably and are used in millions of applications and with a variety of equipment in general industry and the automotive sector.

This radial shaft seal ring is based on know-how gained from years of experience. It continually undergoes further refinement based on the latest technological developments, and is particularly functionally reliable, flexible and extremely stressable.

Always “up-to-date”
The tried-and-tested original Simmerring keeps up with the times. Freudenberg’s experts have continued to develop it, with improvements in seal lip profiles. This has made it possible to further enhance its reliability and functionality across a broad range of applications. The advances include a friction-optimized design – the Low Friction Simmerring® – to decrease fuel consumption, which leads to reductions in CO₂ emissions.

Gallagher Fluid Seals offers a comprehensive selection of Freudenberg Sealing Technologies products suited to a variety of requirements.
