MrKev Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Does anyone know if anywhere sells replacement seal kits for the T Max double cylinder compressors? I could do with a full set really, the two O-rings that go above the outlet valves are ok, but the piston to liner seals aren't that great, and more importantly one of the seals that goes between the bottom of the outlet valve and the top of the liner has failed, in fact it had made it's way along the air line and out of the end... I've put some sealant in there as a temporary fix, but if anyone knows of the exactly right part, I'd be interested, otherwise I'll try and find a generic O-ring to fit.

zim Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Mine didn't last too long, i replaced them with a couple O rings out of a normal o ring set. G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKev Posted May 27, 2011 Author Share Posted May 27, 2011 Ah, cheers. I might just go straight to putting some O-rings in then. Has it given you decent service since then? Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zim Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Yes I was having trouble of it running more than it should (basically it was leaking air out of the cylinder, so my tank was constanly draining !). Swapped the seals out and all been fine It's still working after this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrKev Posted June 3, 2011 Author Share Posted June 3, 2011 @Zim: Bog standard O-Rings (thanks to me raiding Mark's O-ring collection) have gone in and done the job a treat. By the way it went back together, it might even be better than original. I only did the one cylinder, to test, as the other hand't failed yet, but I'll do that one too I think, and post the dimensions of the O-rings I used in case anyone else wants to know.
