The pressure causes the shield to deflect, and the soft outer rubber layer compresses against the metallic surface of the wheel, forming a momentary seal that prevents the ingress of the liquids. The inner seal provides a secondary line of defense, keeping external fluids out of the wheel and retaining the internal lubrication grease; both important factors affecting the life of the wheel. Once the stream is directed away from the wheel, the deflected shield returns to its original position, allowing any residual fluid that entered the area between the shield and seal to drain out or be spun out by centrifugal force. ‘Bearing life is dependent on factors such as duty cycle, cleaning agents used, and frequency of washdown procedures. One equipment manufacturer reports 6x life, and still running.
