App helps with hydraulic seal selection
08 August 2014
A new seal-selector program on the James Walker website will help users find, swiftly and simply, Chevron/Shallex and Lofilm standard size multi-lip products to match the dimensions of their hydraulic equipment.

A link to the Selector for hydraulic seals appears as a green-printed panel on every Chevron and Lofilm product page on the website.
By clicking the 'Get started' button, you are connected directly to the App. Select mm or inches, then insert the rod/shaft or cylinder/bore diameter, which creates a list of all matching Chevron and Lofilm standard products together with application suitability and part numbers for endless or split types. At this stage, you can fine-tune your search by inserting the appropriate Axial Length.
If the search does not identify a suitable hydraulic seal, you should contact James Walker using the link on the Results page.
Explains Andy Parkinson, product manager for Hydraulic Sealing Products: "We hold hundreds of mould tools for non-standard sizes of our Chevron and Lofilm products, and the size you want could be among them. We could also recommend a suitable product from one of our other ranges of hydraulic seals.”
