Alistair, All the Canadian ones I have seen have been cork, I would use graphite gland/pump packing in the correct size, available from any engineering machine suppliers, use the same material to seal your rear axle brake drums, or go for shielded bearings on the outside.
kev.

When I did the wheels on my carrier I took the shaft and the bit that carries the seal into the local bearing shop, he worked out the inside and outside diamiters then picked out seals off the shelf. Regular lipped seals.
