O-RING – 014
Western Part # 56416 is an O-Ring, specifically identified by the standard size code “014”. This O-ring is a precision-engineered sealing component designed for use within various hydraulic or fluid-sealing applications on Western Snow Plows.
An O-ring is a circular cross-section seal designed to be seated in a groove and compressed during assembly between two or more parts, creating a tight seal. The “014” size designation refers to its specific dimensions according to AS568 standard sizes, indicating a precise inner diameter, outer diameter, and cross-sectional thickness. This exact sizing is critical for ensuring a proper, leak-proof seal in the intended application.
In Western Snow Plow hydraulic systems, O-rings like Part # 56416 are used to seal connections between hydraulic fittings, within valves, around pistons in cylinders, or in other areas where hydraulic fluid needs to be contained and prevented from leaking. They are made from durable, resilient materials compatible with hydraulic fluids and capable of withstanding the range of temperatures and pressures encountered during snow plowing. Replacing a worn, cracked, or improperly sized O-ring with this genuine Western part is essential for maintaining the integrity of your plow’s hydraulic system and preventing fluid leaks. Always refer to your Western Plow’s documentation and hydraulic schematics to confirm the specific application and location for O-Ring Part # 56416 to ensure proper fit and function.
