The real fuss about the Seal for the rear is the metel rubbing against the
roller bearing and possibly giving off metallic particulates.
I do see the importance of this, however sometimes one needs to use what is
available and realize it is a issue, but nothing that will
drastically effect the life of the assembly.
If things were that sensitive, the solvent, room , rags , tools,grease and
the worker better be using Clean Room Protocol .
I'm sure some will argue this, but it is my experience.
On or Air Filtre side, I teach Clean Room Procedure so ....
