Ivor,


I am confused. Last week you said that seals SP2044 and SP3694 are compatible 
only
with Dot5. Now you imply that they are for automotive fluid, i.e. Dot3 etc..
Please confirm one way or the other, and where does ATF fit in ?

Researching a Girling Catalogue, for 3/4 inch seals suitable for DOT 3/4/5.1 
automotive brake fluid, The ring seals are for ford escort front cylinders 
and the cup seals are for Mazda rear cylinders, they meet the right spec for 
Diameter/ depth and material (Ethylene-Proplene) 
The SP 2044 ring seals need to have there centre slightly enlarged to fit 
over the piston and maintain the correct seal to the bore, If you don't the 
seals overall diameter will increase beyond 3/4 inch, and the piston will 
stick in the bore and not return easily ( don't ask how i know this) 
I have a someBuna-N (nitrile) O rings suitable for the MATCO Brake 
calipers used on the tri-gear,can be used with Mil-h-5606 or Silicone DOT5 
fluid or ATF 
surplus to requirements so if you need any FOC give me a call
