Forklift seal kits
Forklift Seal Kits are used in containing fluids and keeping out debris from forklift parts such as; water pumps, carburetors hydraulic cylinders, hydraulic control valves, steering cylinders, forklift wheels, brake hubs master cylinders, and wheel cylinders. Forklift seal kits are made from various materials like rubber, polyurethane or Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The material used varies depending on the specified application such as pressure, work area temperature and fluid type.
Seal kits manage and contain the hydraulic and fluid leaks that occur inside of the forklift. As the name suggests, the seal kits are the accessories that seals the parts to prevent hydraulic failures. These kits are disposable and can be completely replaced or repaired.
Forklift seal kits play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of hydraulic systems and preventing oil and fluid leaks. These kits are designed to:
Seal the hydraulic cylinders effectively
Prevent contamination of hydraulic fluid
Extend the lifespan of critical components
Reduce maintenance costs
Important Things to Note About Seal Kits
Occasionally, solely the replacement of seal kits does not completely fix a problematic hydraulic system. Sometimes, the factory seal kits deteriorate because of heat and age, which will eventually fail since most accessories that form part of the seal kits are made from rubber or plastic materials. Then, the failure can cause the modular strands to vulcanize, thus making the seal kits hard and inflexible. Other common problems to be aware of is the bearing failure, high case pressure, and excessive heat to the unit.
