Looks like a standard seal to me, anything high tech about it? It's a seal and they make seals. Pick up the phone and see what they say.
Or wait 30 weeks.

I don't know if it's easy or no, but looks like a grease seal with a bearing race inside. One way to find out?

Thanks for the link, Joe. I'll have ask some questions, I'm not sure what kind of pressure this seal holds inside the motor. It looks like if it's more than 7 psi their seals will not work. The bearings are lubricated by hydraulic oil from the drive motor, this seal separates that oil from the Bobcat drivetrain oil that is in the brake housing. I'll call them tomorrow and see what they say. Another thing that might be a problem is this seal is proprietary to this application for Bobcat.

@thepumpguysc hope you're sorted, I have had a few states customers now, and most have paid credit card over the phone and a couple of bank transfers, we use either TNT ( now FedEx ) or DHL and they handle everything, you will have import duty's to pay but the courier company will let you know what that is. Over a certain cost ( I can't remember what it is ) the supply company from the UK will also need a tax/vat number from the customer.

Shimmy it holds case pressure. Should be less than 30 or so PSI . You need OD, ID, and thickness. Look at Harwell Seals. They have lots of metric sizes with rubber coated outer metal cases

I ordered my parts on Monday w a cc over the phone..
Funny thing is.. everything was listed in Euros.. but they demanded payment in pound sterling..
So I had to convert euros to pound sterling, then p sterling to dollars..
What a mess..
ANY WAY, parts ordered on Monday and received on Thursday, FROM ENGLAND.!!

I did get the tips BUT they won’t fit the injector.. the wrong size pins and the feed hole is off-set..
What a cluster ....!
Once I found this out, I contacted the co I bought them from, asking if I could send them back and if they have a re-stocking fee..
no answer.. lol

I have been talking to my local Perkins rep about other things since this thread started. What was the problem with your order? Wrong serial number or wrong part number or wrong part shipped or what?

I hate to say it and has left me w several sleepless night, but I had to throw in the towel..
I got all but 1 injector to work correctly..
I ate the cost and returned them to the customer..1 hr labor and 20.00 frt..
I’ll betcha I have 2-3 day and a few long distance phone calls, not to mention the 330.00 snafu..
Oh well, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose..
