Product catalog summary
Introduction
Trelleborg Sealing Solutions is a leader in developing sealing systems for electric-powered drivetrains, focusing on the electric drive unit, which combines an electric motor and gearbox. The drive unit is crucial for electric vehicle development, requiring efficient lubrication for the gearbox while keeping the motor dry, necessitating a reliable seal.
Product Overview
The HiSpin™ HS40 seal is designed for high-speed electric motors, offering low friction and improved sealing performance. It features a unique hydrodynamic design that reduces frictional torque and prevents shaft damage. The XLT high-performance fluoroelastomer (FKM) range provides resistance to extreme conditions, outperforming traditional FKM elastomers.
Features and Benefits
  • Operates at speeds up to 40 m/s
  • Bi-directional sealing capability
  • Compact design for reduced assembly space
  • Wide temperature range (-45°C to +200°C)
  • Handles run out effectively
  • Excellent performance in various lubricated environments
  • Low frictional torque and heat development
  • Compatible with eMobility transmission fluids
  • Negligible shaft wear and easy installation
  • Cost-effective and available in different configurations
Technical Details
The HiSpin™ HS40 seal's performance depends on proper housing design and installation. It has been tested under conditions such as a shaft diameter of Ø38 mm, speeds up to 21,000 rpm, and temperatures up to 150°C using ATF Fluid. The test cycle follows ISO 6149 standards, with a duration of 500 hours.
Test Results
Testing shows minimal volume change in various elastomers under extreme conditions. The HiSpin™ HS40 demonstrates superior torque performance compared to standard seals, especially in oil mist and partially oil-filled conditions.
Conclusion
Trelleborg Sealing Solutions provides innovative, reliable, and cost-effective sealing solutions for automotive applications, adhering to IATF 16949 quality standards.

HiSpin™ HS40-1

HIGH SPEED ELASTOMER ROTARY SEALING ACROSS A WIDE RANGE OF LUBRICATION CONDITIONS AND TEMPERATURES HiSpin™ HS40 meets the demanding temperature requirements of e-Mobility and high-speed electric motor applications, offering energy efficient sealing and extended life time performance. Developers are continuously improving the effectiveness of the electric drive unit; a combined electric motor and gearbox in a shared housing. XLT compounds has proven that these low temperature FKM grades outperform and extend the temperature performance capability of traditional FKM elastomers. The drive unit is the main cost-driver of future electric vehicle development and offers new challenges for automotive manufacturers. While the gearbox requires efficient lubrication, it is essential that the motor remains dry. Therefore, a highly reliable seal is required between the two parts. Trelleborg Sealing Solutions is at the forefront of the development of sealing systems for electric-powered drivetrains, having been involved in the technology since its inception. As a result, engineered solutions have been developed specifically for electric-drive units that are also suitable for a broad variety of other electric-drive applications. Tested under extreme conditions, these seals offer superior, cost-effective performance and reliability. Providing outstanding low friction capabilities, HiSpin™ HS40 meets the demanding conditions of automotive high-speed electric motors. A unique hydrodynamic feature helps reduce frictional torque, while oil back-pumping leads to improved sealing performance without causing any shaft damage. Our proprietary XLT high-performance fluoroelastomer (FKM) elastomer range provides outstanding resistance to extreme engine conditions resulting from high motor speeds and aggressive synthetic ATF fluids. Testing of the new generation • Works at high speeds up to 40 m/s • Bi-directional sealing capability • Compact design to reduce assembly space • Wide temperature range, from -45°C to +200°C due to XLT FKM • Ability to handle run out • Excellent sealing performance in different lubricated environments • Adds value with low frictional torque • Reduction of heat development • Proven compatibility with various eMobility transmission fluids • Negligible shaft wear • Easy installation • Cost effective solution • Available in different outer diameter configurations, e.g. partially rubber covered Trelleborg Sealing Solutions develops, manufactures and supplies innovative engineered solutions for automotive applications. We have a commitment to satisfy our customers and to supply a consistent qu
