Replace the worn seal on a 40 mm shaft with the Oil Seal 40x56x12 NBR TC — 40x56x12 mm, TC profile, NBR compound — it drops into a 56 mm bore and stops the leak. Popular in motor shafts, gearbox input stages, centrifugal pumps and tillers.

Why the TC profile is so widely used
As a TC-pattern seal it seals in two stages: a primary spring-loaded lip holds the oil film on the shaft, while a second lip fends off dust and water spray; the rubber-covered case keeps the whole unit anchored in the bore.
NBR nitrile rubber at a glance
The compound is NBR nitrile, selected for oil-and-grease compatibility across motors, reducers and pumps. Note the limits: brake fluid degrades nitrile, and sunlight ages stored rubber — so store spares dark and dry.
If your shaft measures a few tenths of a millimetre under the nominal size, that is normal — the sealing lip is designed with interference for exactly that.
