Installation of hydraulic seals:

Sep 30, 2022 Leave a message

Check the surfaces of the piston, cylinder barrel, and installation guide sleeve, ensuring they are thoroughly clean, free of burrs and edges.
The installation tool should be smooth, without edges or sharp corners, to ensure that it will not cause any form of damage to the seal during installation (it is recommended to use Othello's OTH-0003 hydraulic seal special installation tool).
During installation, a small amount of lubricating grease can be applied to the sealing components and cylinder related surfaces to facilitate installation. However, residual lubricating grease is not allowed between the rubber elastomer and the sliding sealing ring, otherwise it will affect the sealing performance.
Whether installed vertically or horizontally, the coaxiality between the piston and cylinder should be maintained, as excessive eccentricity may damage the seal.
The installation speed should not be too fast, otherwise it will damage the seal
