ABSTRACT:
A sealing ring for a drive axle for a mobile vehicle such as a medium or heavy duty truck. The sealing ring is for the interface between the shaft end flange of the axle and the outer hub mounting face of the wheel hub which allows for metal to metal contact between shaft end flange and the wheel hub mounting faces. The sealing ring has a shaft side which is compressed upon installation into a recess in the shaft end flange of the axle and the sealing ring has a hub side which fits adjacent to an inner radial wall of the wheel hub to seal lubricant in the cavity of the wheel hub. The sealing ring is resistant to tearing during installation.
