If my understanding is correct, RTC3511 was superseded by FTC4785 when they changed from oil lubricated bearings to greased ones.

However, a quick search on the net finds a number of hits that suggest the RTC3511 seal is a better seal...

What I can say for sure is that I've got RTC3511 in the ones I've replaced, and the oil and grease is still on the inside, where it belongs.

Can anyone confirm or deny this?

i've read that as well :unsure: so confusing. it seem that both seal fits in but i won't know which one is better though!!! that means that i could fit either of them. but i could be wrong. i've got a couple of rtc3511 in the shed so that could be handy
