The TROSTEL Oil Seal 3.500x4.506x0.438 TCN NBR is designed for industrial rotary shaft applications requiring lubricant retention around a 3.500-inch shaft within a 4.506-inch housing bore.

Installed between the rotating shaft and stationary housing, the sealing element maintains controlled radial contact with the shaft surface. This helps reduce leakage of compatible oil or grease while protecting bearings, gears, pumps, transmissions, and other internal rotating components from dust, moisture, and contaminants.

The product is identified by the TROSTEL manufacturer designation TCN. This is a manufacturer-specific profile code. The exact sealing-lip geometry, number of lips, dust-exclusion arrangement, outside-case construction, internal reinforcement, spring configuration, lip orientation, and installation direction should be verified against the original seal, technical drawing, or equipment specification before replacement.

Manufactured from NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber), the sealing element is generally suitable for:

• Mineral oils
• Gear oils
• Hydraulic oils
• Bearing grease
• Petroleum-based lubricants
• General industrial lubricating fluids

NBR provides good resistance to petroleum-based oils, grease, abrasion, and mechanical wear under normal industrial operating conditions. Compatibility should be verified before use with aggressive chemicals, fuels, continuous high temperatures, ozone-rich environments, or specialized synthetic lubricants.

The inch dimensions convert approximately to:

Shaft diameter: 3.500 inches or 88.90 mm

Housing diameter: 4.506 inches or approximately 114.45 mm

Seal width: 0.438 inch or approximately 11.13 mm

The 3.500 × 4.506 × 0.438-inch configuration is suitable for medium-to-large bearing housings, industrial gearboxes, pumps, transmissions, conveyor drives, and legacy machinery using an inch-size shaft-sealing arrangement.

For a seal of this size, shaft finish, housing alignment, concentricity, shaft runout, installation depth, and correct lip lubrication are important factors affecting sealing performance and service life.

Brand: TROSTEL

Model / Profile: TCN

Size: 3.500 × 4.506 × 0.438 inch

Metric Equivalent: Approximately 88.90 × 114.45 × 11.13 mm

Type: Large Industrial Rotary Shaft Oil Seal

Material: NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber)

Profile: TCN

Construction: Manufacturer-Specific TROSTEL TCN Rotary Shaft-Seal Construction

Lip Design: TCN profile; verify the exact sealing-lip geometry, number of lips, and orientation against the original seal or technical drawing

Dust Lip: Verify from the actual TCN cross-section

Spring Type: Verify from the actual seal construction

Shaft Diameter (ID): 3.500 inches / 88.90 mm

Housing Diameter (OD): 4.506 inches / approximately 114.45 mm

Width: 0.438 inch / approximately 11.13 mm

Pressure Capability: Low-pressure rotary shaft-sealing service unless otherwise specified

Lubrication: Compatible oil and grease

Temperature Range: Typically approximately -30°C to +100°C for standard NBR; verify the actual compound, lubricant, shaft speed, and operating conditions

Speed Consideration: Permissible speed depends on shaft diameter, surface finish, lubrication, temperature, alignment, concentricity, runout, and NBR compound

Installation Consideration: Confirm shaft finish, shaft hardness, housing-bore condition, installation depth, lip direction, concentricity, and shaft-edge protection before fitting

Application Class: Medium-to-Large Industrial Bearing and Rotating Equipment

Standard: Inch-Size Specialized Industrial Seal

🔁 Equivalent

Suitable replacement or cross-reference candidate for compatible:

• TROSTEL TCN NBR Rotary Shaft Seal
• TROSTEL 3.500x4.506x0.438 Oil Seal
• 88.90x114.45x11.13 Rotary Seal
• 3.500-Inch Shaft Oil Seal
• Large Inch-Size NBR Rotary Seal
• Industrial Bearing Housing Seal
• Industrial Gearbox Shaft Seal
• Industrial Pump Shaft Seal
• OEM TCN Profile Oil Seal
• Large Industrial NBR Shaft Seal

The same dimensions alone do not guarantee interchangeability. The replacement must match the original TCN cross-section, sealing-lip geometry, lip orientation, outside-case construction, reinforcement arrangement, spring configuration, installation direction, material compound, and operating requirements.

(Always verify dimensions, TCN-profile geometry, lip direction, shaft finish, shaft hardness, housing condition, installation depth, lubricant compatibility, rotational speed, temperature, alignment, concentricity, runout, pressure, and operating conditions before ordering.)
