Construction and application details
The sealing element is made from HNBR rubber, with a steel component forming part of the seal assembly. The stated material characteristics include resistance to fuels, oils, and lubricants, together with resistance to abrasion and cutting. These properties describe the supplied HNBR material and its intended operating environment; they do not define a separate installation procedure.
In service, the isolation seal is positioned at the interface of mating components. Its functions are to restrict the passage of fluids and contaminants through the joint and to reduce the transmission of vibration between connected parts. The part dimensions supplied for identification are an overall length of 1008 mm, an overall width of 346 mm, and a product depth of 1 cm.
Before fitting, compare the removed component with the listed reference numbers, dimensions, material, and the applicable Caterpillar model. The fitment information includes both complete machines and engines, so the exact installation position depends on the equipment configuration and the relevant assembly.
