Timken Timing Cover Seals 100470

Timken Timing Cover Seal

Key Features & Highlights

• Designed to prevent oil leakage at the entry point of the timing cover, keeping oil inside where it belongs.

• Helps exclude contaminants — moisture, dust, abrasive particles — from entering the engine internal area via the timing cover opening.

• Manufactured by Timken, a well-known brand with expertise in bearings and sealing solutions, ensuring reliable sealing performance over time.

• Typically made from durable elastomeric sealing lip materials bonded to a rigid metal or polymer support for structural stability.

• Some versions may have a garter spring inside the sealing lip to maintain optimal radial pressure against the shaft.

• Timken timing cover seals are engineered to seal the interface between the engine block’s timing cover (or front cover) and the rotating crankshaft (or cam, depending on design).

• Available in multiple sizes and configurations, to fit a wide variety of engine blocks (small block, big block, LS, LT, etc.).

• To use in Corvette applications, match seal outer diameter (OD), inner bore diameter (ID), and width to the specific engine (e.g. small block, LS series, LT series) and the front timing cover you have.

• Because Timken offers many variants, it is critical to select the exact seal size / part number for your engine setup.
