It is possible that SKF changed their internal spacing, as all the information in their seal catalog describes only applications where the seal is treated as a stand alone assembly, and not as a part (of a larger assembly). I'll turn a few seal installation tools, this weekend.
Rich,
I called SKF yesterday and the tech rep, while helpful, was unable to provide information on their seal's designed clearance, or a measured drawing, so there's no way of knowing if recent SKF seals' failure to meet our clearance criteria is by design.
If you could get more information from SKF I'd love to see a dimensioned drawing.
