The products, employees and facility locations remain unchanged, assuring customers the same high level of quality and service they have enjoyed previously.

So the CR seals may now be ceased production.

SKF = same number, different Co.

Tony,

SKF acquired Chicago Rawhide many years ago. CR seals are not ceased production, it is merely a rebranding of well-known line of products. If I am correct, the numbers are still the same, except for the "CR" bit. Any authorised SKF distributor should be able to help you out.
