Hydraulic Caliper Piston Seal Repair Kit
If you are doing maintenance on your caliper brakes and need to replace your piston, then you’ll likely need to replace your caliper piston seals.
This hydraulic piston seal repair kit suits both AL-KO and Trojan hydraulic calipers. The leading cause of piston failure often stems from worn seals. When a seal is slightly damaged, water can enter the hydraulic chamber, leading to the piston jamming.
How often should you replace your piston seals?Ā Experts recommend replacing your boat trailer caliper piston seals twice a year.
