Motorcycle Fork Tube Individual Oil Seal

Motorbike front forks need regular servicing to replace worn parts - especially the seals & bushings. Dust Seals (also called wipers) are the first line of defence & the only part you can see from the outside once the upper & lower fork casing tubes are rebuilt. They keep dirt & grit out of the suspension.

Oil Seals are the softer viton rubber rings underneath, with a tiny thin spring around the edge to squeeze the lip onto the inside fork tube, stopping lubricants leaking out & leaving metal to grind. The lips are fragile, so use a fork seal driver kit to hammer carefully during a rebuild to avoid twists or kinks.

These single oil seals from factory manufacturers KYB & Showa plus newly re-formed Marzocchi stop leaks, protecting everything inside one fork leg - especially the teflon coated bushings.
