Overview
The CR 16314 oil seal is a small-bore radial shaft seal manufactured by CR Seals (SKF/Chicago Rawhide), a leader in industrial sealing solutions since 1878. This CRW1-type seal features a single wave lip design optimized for reliable performance in rotating equipment across manufacturing, agriculture, and general industrial applications. With a 1.625-inch shaft diameter and nitrile rubber lip, the CR 16314 delivers consistent leak prevention and extends equipment service life.
