Do not over-expand the seal ring. Install the resin seal rings with care so as not to damage them. After installation, be sure to contract the seal
rings using the special tool (sizing tool).
-
There are two types of sleeve seal rings: black and brown. Do not mix the different types of sleeve seal rings as they are not compatible.
