Öhlins specifies seal compounds for temperature stability rather than for the lowest unit cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal Öhlins service part\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eÖhlins part number 22152-01\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis position is identified by its number rather than by a dimension. Seals harden with heat and age even when the machine has not been ridden much. Öhlins uses seals with a spring-loaded lip so they follow the shaft as it wears. Replacing seals at service intervals is far cheaper than replacing what a failed seal damages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Original\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA damper that can be rebuilt is a damper that stays on the bike; that is the whole argument for original service parts. Öhlins lists this part under its own number in the service catalogue so a workshop can order exactly what it needs. Service parts are supplied per piece unless the description says otherwise. If the unit is already apart, compare the published dimensions with the part in your hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Be Sure It Fits\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart number 22152-01 is unambiguous; the description alone is not, because Öhlins uses similar wording across sizes. Where no measurement is given, the drawing position is what identifies the part. Nitrile, Viton and PTFE behave differently with temperature, and Öhlins picks per position. The dust seal does the hard work: it keeps the grit that would score the shaft away from the oil seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you would rather not open the damper yourself, we can do it — we are an authorised Öhlins service centre and rebuild these units as a matter of routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eBrand:\u003c\/em\u003e Öhlins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/em\u003e 22152-01\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCategory:\u003c\/em\u003e Seals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/em\u003e Sweden\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Öhlins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53652197409034,"sku":"22152-01","price":23.93,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/22152-01_77317632-d861-49c5-8818-91e752b609e6.png?v=1788878198","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/ohlins-seal-vl-16-22152-01","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
