Subject: | Re: Brake failure |
Thanks Walt. Yep I've had these issues with a plane in the past that used automotive
master cylinder and aeromotive brakes. Had to swap out the rubbers.
Luckily most O Rings these days are Nitrile. I've soaked the parts over the weekend
, and no swelling. So will reassemble with new ORings.
The rubber boots over the springs are perished, they will be a problem child to
replace.
Quick question, there is a square section ORing that fits into a machined recess
on the piston. It was really hard to remove, we had to pick it out bit by bit.
Would appear to have been bonded in. There is a red stain on the alloy inside
the recess. Is there a red locktite product that bonds Rubber to Alloy and
can be used in brakefluid ?
Cheers Steve.
