SKF 8796 Power Steering Pump Shaft Seal
SKF 8796 Power Steering Pump Shaft Seal
The SKF 8796 power steering pump shaft seal is built for sealing performance in steering systems that rely on a precise shaft-to-housing interface. With a 0.875 shaft diameter, 1.628 outside diameter, and 0.250 width, it is sized for a specific pump application and uses a nitrile sealing surface for fluid resistance in power steering service.
Key Features
- Power steering pump shaft seal for steering system sealing
- 0.875 shaft diameter for the specified pump shaft size
- 1.628 outside diameter and 0.250 width for proper housing fit
- Nitrile sealing surface type for fluid-contact sealing performance
- SKF part number 8796 for direct reference and ordering
- Fits 1952 Buick Roadmaster, Eaton Pump
Detailed Description
SKF 8796 is a steering gasket and sealing system component made for a power steering pump shaft application. SKF has a long history in seal engineering, and this seal reflects that focus with application-specific dimensions and material selection. For 1952 Buick Roadmaster models equipped with an Eaton Pump, this seal supports the shaft sealing point where fluid retention and contamination control are critical. The part number 8796 is also useful when cross-checking service records or sourcing a replacement for the same application. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Power steering fluid seepage at the pump shaft
- Loss of hydraulic pressure from a worn shaft seal
- Contamination entering the pump through the sealing area
- Noise or performance issues tied to low fluid level
- Seal wear from age, heat, and fluid exposure
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify shaft diameter, outside diameter, and width before installation to confirm the seal matches the Eaton Pump specification. Inspect the pump shaft and sealing surface for scoring or wear before assembly, since a damaged shaft can shorten seal life. Clean the housing thoroughly and lubricate the sealing lip with the correct power steering fluid during installation. For fitment-based searches, this part is commonly referenced as a 1952 Buick Roadmaster power steering pump shaft seal, SKF 8796.
Quality Assurance
SKF manufactures seals to specific designs using premium materials and controlled production standards. The brand’s seal engineering heritage and focus on long service life support dependable sealing performance in steering applications.
