    Description of Change: Optional seals that are made from an improved material are available for use in high temperature applications.

    Adaptable To: The new FKM (fluoroelastomer rubber) seals are available for inch port STOR fittings, ORFS fittings, and high-pressure flange fittings (D-rings). The new seals provide superior sealing performance and longer seal life in high temperature applications. The new seals may also feature a light blue coating for easier installation.

    Note: Do not use the FKM seals with coolant or fireproof hydraulic fluid.Refer to the tables below for the optional direct replacement part numbers of the seals.
