Process
The table below gives the steps of installing static seals :
Step Action Comment
1 Clean bearing grooves and
surfaces using ISOPROPANOL.
2 Rid the seal of all foreign bodies
such as paintbrush bristles or
filings...
Remove (where applicable) the
color identification point with
fingernail, never with a sharp
instrument.
Check the condition of the seal
which should present no
scratches or deformation (it
should be neither flattened,
stretched, nor broken).
3 Lightly lubricate the seal by hand
using MOLYKOTE 111 grease.
Do not use a brush to do this.
Eliminate excess grease by
squeezing the seal between
fingers, leaving only a thin layer
on the entire surface.
4 Put the seal(s) in place.
5 Lubricate both bearing surfaces
with MOLYKOTE 111.
Fill the residual volume of the
seal’s outside groove with grease.
Do not put grease on the inside
surface.
Only seals are
