Hi dear
I have a question on the subject of hydraulic cylinders, where I have a hydraulic cylinder and I want to replace all the oil seals , but, when i disassembly the hydraulic cylinder and the gland , i found inside the gland oil seal and backup ring together, since , the back up ring is solid (uncut) (none split) and is placed inside the seal as show in the picture above , since this seals and backup ring is placed inside the gland which is have internally grooved , so , my question is :
1- how can i installed this back up ring inside the gland ?
2- is this seal and back up ring is installed together or each one separately ?
3- if i want to cut this back up ring at 30 degree , are there problem or not ? I mean is this correct or not ?
4- if i want to warm the back up ring in the hot water and then put it inside the seals directly , and then installed it together inside the gland , are there problem or not ? I mean is this correct or not ?
5- if i want put the back up ring inside the seal and shaped it together as kidney shape and then installed it inside the gland , is the back up ring is broken during the formed it or no ?
the attach file above is indicate the seal and back up ring
i will wait your help to answer me dear
