English term or phrase: floating face seal

The floating face seal is a key component in the operation of your final drive. It sits against the hub, and that seal is all that holds the bearing oil on the planetary side of your drive while keeping damaging contaminants out. If it isn’t maintained, your final drive or travel motor will be damaged.
How does the Floating Face Seal Work?

The floating face seal goes by a few different names: the main seal, mechanical face seal, lifetime seal, toric ring, or dual cone seal. These seals have been designed to survive the extreme conditions encountered in construction and earth-moving equipment – but they aren’t indestructible.

The assembly of a floating face seal is made up of two matching halves. Each half has a seal ring (usually white iron) and toric elastomeric ring, which acts as a secondary sealing element. One face of the seal ring has been precision ground/lapped to mate with the matching face on the opposite seal ring, providing the seal. The elastomeric ring forces the two seals halves together and provides an external seal.
