What industries typically use this tool?

It is ideal for automotive, marine, HGV (Heavy Goods Vehicle), and agricultural engineering applications.

How do I ensure I use the correct tool size?

Match the bore diameter you are working with to the range specified for each tool size. Also, consider the cross-sectional thickness of the O-ring seal itself.

What maintenance is required for this tool set?

Clean the tools with a cloth after each use and store them in a dry place to prevent rust and maintain their condition.

Troubleshooting

Seal is difficult to insert

Verify you are using the correct size tool for the bore diameter and seal cross-section. Ensure the seal and bore are clean and appropriately lubricated.

Seal appears to be damaged after fitting

The selected tool size may be incorrect, or excessive force was applied. Re-examine the tool size and installation technique. Check the seal for nicks or tears before attempting re-installation with the correct size and method.

Tool does not seem to fit the seal properly

Confirm that the seal is a standard O-ring type and that its dimensions fall within the specified range for the tool size (e.g., max cross-section of 6mm, 8mm, or 10mm).
