Practical Shaft Seals for Hobby Maintenance

Attention to sealing components helps prolong model life. These XRAY 971060 silicone O-rings match 6mm shafts with a 1.5mm section and are supplied as a 10 pack so you have spares for scheduled servicing or unexpected repairs.

Best Uses and Cross Compatibility

Ideal for use where a compact seal is needed around 6mm shafts, such as steering pivots, pump shafts and gearbox entries. They work with many common shaft layouts but always verify groove fit before final assembly.

Practical Fitting Recommendations

Remove dirt and old lubricant before fitting a new O-ring and stretch it evenly to avoid twisting. A dab of silicone-safe grease will aid installation and reduce abrasion during initial run-in.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will these work on electric and nitro models?

Yes, silicone O-rings are commonly used across electric and nitro models for sealing, though check for chemical compatibility with any specific fluids in the system.

How can I check the ring is seated correctly?

Visually confirm the ring sits evenly in the groove with no folds or overhang, then rotate the shaft slowly to ensure smooth movement.

Is silicone better than nitrile for my application?

Silicone keeps flexibility over a wide temperature range and resists some chemicals; nitrile may be tougher against oils. Choose material based on exposure and performance needs.

What size should I order if my shaft is slightly undersize?

Maintain the specified 6mm fit where possible; using a tighter or looser size can compromise sealing. Measure the shaft diameter and groove before selecting alternative sizes.
