Abstract
A sealing system for a shaft, in particular for a combustion engine, with a motor casing cover having a clearance hole for take-up of a carrier is shown having at least one dynamically and at least one statically effective sealing area and is equipped with a centering area that allows centering relative to the clearance hole, when the carrier is securely connected to the motor casing cover by means of a quarter-turn fastener. The centering area is arranged on the level of the quarter-turn fastener in such a way that the dynamic sealing area is aligned with a shaft and the static sealing area with given pressure can be used in a corresponding section of the motor casing cover.
