Description
Tilton 6000-Series hydraulic release bearings use swivel-type steel braided hoses with O-rings to create leak-free connections at the supply and bleed ports. Over time, these O-rings can wear or become damaged, resulting in fluid seepage at the hose fittings. This replacement O-ring restores the positive seal required for reliable hydraulic clutch actuation.
The O-ring seats in the machined groove on the swivel fitting, where it seals against the hydraulic bearing body when the connection is tightened. Proper sealing at these fittings is critical -- any air intrusion or fluid loss compromises pedal feel and clutch engagement consistency. If you're servicing your 6000-Series hydraulic release bearing or experiencing a slow leak at either hose connection, this O-ring is the fix.
Installation is straightforward: remove the existing hose fitting, replace the old O-ring with this new one, and reinstall. Compatible with all Tilton 6000-Series hydraulic release bearings that use the standard double O-ring swivel fittings. This O-ring is formulated for use with DOT 3 and DOT 4 brake fluid -- the fluids recommended by Tilton for their hydraulic release bearing systems.
