FAQs

What is a Bonded Dowty Seal?

A Bonded Dowty seal is a type of seal consisting of a rubber ring bonded to a metal washer. It is used to create a seal on threaded connections, commonly found in hydraulic and pneumatic systems, preventing leaks.

Are these seals suitable for high-pressure applications?

Yes, Bonded Dowty seals are designed to provide reliable sealing in high-pressure hydraulic and pneumatic systems.

What are the primary uses for this assortment?

This assortment is ideal for metric threaded connections in hydraulic, pneumatic, automotive, and general engineering applications where leak prevention is critical.

How do I determine the correct size seal to use?

The seals are labeled with metric thread sizes (e.g., M10, M12). Match the seal size to the corresponding metric thread size of your fitting.

What is the net weight of the assortment box?

The net weight of the assortment box is approximately 0.34kg.

Can I purchase individual sizes if I run out?

This product is sold as a complete assortment box. For individual sizes, you may need to consult with the retailer or manufacturer for separate purchasing options.

What materials are the seals made from?

The seals consist of a rubber element bonded to a metal washer. Specific rubber compound details are not provided in the product description.

Troubleshooting

Seal is leaking after installation.

Ensure the correct size seal was used for the fitting. Verify the mating surfaces are clean and free of imperfections. Check that the fitting was tightened to the recommended torque specification. Inspect the seal for any signs of damage before installation.

Difficulty fitting seal onto the thread.

Confirm you are using a metric fitting and the correct corresponding metric seal size. Ensure the threads are clean and not damaged. Do not force the seal; it should slide on smoothly.

Box is disorganized or seals are mixed.

Refer to the quantity breakdown provided in the product description to re-sort seals by size into their respective compartments within the partitioned box.

Pros and Cons

  • The partitioned box offers excellent organization and accessibility.
  • Bonded seals are effective for preventing leaks in pressurized systems.
  • Suitable for both professional tradespeople and home DIY projects.
  • Conveniently packaged for easy storage and transport.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Bonded Dowty seals are designed for straightforward installation. They consist of a rubber O-ring bonded to a metal washer. To install:

  1. Ensure the mating surface and thread are clean and free from debris.
  2. Place the bonded seal over the male thread, ensuring the rubber element is positioned to face the pressure source.
  3. Tighten the fitting securely. The metal washer prevents over-compression of the rubber element, creating a reliable seal.

Compatibility:

This assortment is specifically for metric applications. The seals are designed to work with standard metric threaded ports and fittings. Always confirm the thread size (e.g., M10, M12) matches the fitting you are using.

Care:

  • Store the seals in their original partitioned box to prevent contamination and damage.
  • Keep the box in a dry environment away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
  • Handle seals with clean hands or tools to avoid introducing dirt or grease that could compromise the seal.
  • Inspect seals for any signs of damage or degradation before use.
