O-RINGS INSTALLED IN STOR/ORFS FITTINGS (FITTING/ADAPTOR

ASSEMBLIES)
Illustration 1 g03150156
Background
Commonly used fluid line connectors are:
1. Straight Threaded O-Rings (STOR)
2. O-ring Face Seal (ORFS)
3. Bolt Flanges (SAE Code 61, 62, and CAT Flange)
Radial O-ring seals and conventional face seals are not fluid line connectors.
O-ring sealing depends on proper seating of the seal in the groove, maintaining this condition during assembly of the joint, and proper torque on
the connection. Improper assembly practices increase the likelihood of leaking joints.
Assembly Aids - Retention compounds and lubricants must not be used on STOR/ORFS. Applications requiring the use of a retention compound
need to be validated for seal compatibility with the retention compound by Caterpillar before use.
Assembly Tooling
O-rings may be installed into a fitting/adapter without the use of a tool however, installing a seal without the use of a tool places the seal at extreme
risk of damage. It is recommended that appropriate tooling should be used for the installation of O-rings.

When installing an O-ring over a threaded fitting, it is critical to protect the seal from damage from threads. To assist the assembly and protect the
seal, an installation tool must be used shown in Illustration 2. The seal protector slides over the threads and allows for an O-ring to be installed,
reducing the risk of a leak due to nicks, cuts, gouges, and twisting of the seal.

Tooling - Possible Damage
STOR tooling damage
Nicks, material gouges, and chatter marks along tool head.
(10) Tool damage
Material damage to the surface in which the seal will ride is typically in the form of missing material, nicks, gouges, and so on, when forced over the
cone for proper seal seating. Illustration 7 shows tool damage (10) due to improper storage.
Assembly Tooling - Storage

STOR Installation tooling shall be stored in a manner that will minimize the risk of damage to the outside diameter (shaft).
The best-practice tool storage device is one that will:
Segregate the tool preventing contact from other tooling.
Include a soft surface to prevent metal to metal contact.
Hold the tool at the inner diameter of the cone shaft rather than outside diameter.
Provide proper tool identification.
11/29/21, 10:04 AM SIS 2.0
STOR Installation Tool Storage
Illustration 8 shows an example of STOR tooling storage board.
Note: In this example, the tool is being stored using the outer diameter of the shaft, placing tool at risk for damage.
Tools stacked on each other
Tools shall not be stacked on top of each other (Illustration 9).
Tools stacked on parts
Tools shall not be stored on top of seals or other parts (Illustration 10).
Tooling - Care
Before using the tooling check the tool for damage. Tools with damage such as nicks, gouges, missing material, or deformation must be replaced
immediately.
Tools should be cleaned daily to remove contamination. If contamination is present, use a clean lint-free wipe to remove the debris. To maintain
cleanliness and prevent tool damage, storage fixtures should be cleaned as a part of daily 5S activities.
Note: 5S activities refer to CPS For Dealers related to "Sort, Set, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain".

Improperly maintained cone and pusher tooling can cause seal damage that may be in the form of cuts, nicks, or tearing of seal. Damage to the
seal increases the risk of leaks.
If the cone or pusher is damaged, stop using the tool immediately. Report the issue to the dealer service manager or leadman for immediate
replacement.
TOOLING - CRITICAL MAINTENANCE & DAMAGE REPORTING

PROCESS
Routine Maintenance - All seal-specific tooling should be placed on a routine maintenance schedule similar to the torque-tooling schedule.
Reporting Damage - A formal reporting process shall be established at every dealer to report damaged tooling.
Replacement Tooling - To reduce the risk of downtime and use of an unapproved tool due to tooling damage, replacement tooling shall be in
inventory and available for immediate use. Damaged tools should be replaced immediately since using a damaged tool increases the risk of seal
damage or leaks.

O-RINGS INSTALLED IN FACE SEAL JOINTS (NON-ADAPTOR

APPLICATIONS)
Background
O-ring sealing depends on proper seating of the seal in the groove and maintaining this condition during assembly of the joint. Improper assembly
practices increase the likelihood of creating leaks.
Handling
O-rings should not be stretched or twisted beyond what is necessary for installation. O-rings should not be deformed in any manner.
Contact of the O-ring with threads or other sharp objects should be prevented as the contact risks cutting, nicking, or damaging the seal.
Assembly Aid - Retention Compounds

When O-rings and other elastomeric seals are assembled in face grooves that are vertical or inverted, a retention compound may be needed to
keep the seal in place.
Caterpillar no longer recommends the use of Petroleum Jelly (Vaseline) to install o-rings or gaskets. The reason is that Petroleum Jelly is NOT
compatible with all elastomeric (rubber) materials that Caterpillar o-rings and gaskets are made from.
The correct product that should be used for assembly of o-rings is P-80 or Petro Gel Amber. Both of these products are available in the Caterpillar
aftermarket and should be used sparingly.
Refer to the list of part numbers below.
P-80: CAT P/N (NACD): 207-1601
CAT P/N (EAME): 207-1600
Petro Gel Amber: CAT P/N: 369-9450 (6 lb can) or 369-9451 (10 oz tube)
Captive grooves (for example: dovetail grooves, and ORFS fittings) have a built-in retention mechanism. Retention compounds or lubricants must
not be used for captive grooves.
Retention compound should be stored in a clean, closable container that is kept closed between uses. Consult the Contamination Control
Guidelines, PEBJ0002, "Caterpillar Dealer Contamination Control Compliance Guide".
Retention Compound Application

Retention compounds are tacky semi-solids that shall be used only on inverted and vertical O-ring face seal joints.
Application of retention compound directly to the seal does not ensure proper retention in groove. Proper application procedure must be followed.
Do not install a seal into a groove and then apply retention compound to the top surface of the seal. The seal will not retain properly in the groove.
Retention compounds shall be applied sparingly (pea-size beads) into the bottom of the O-ring groove. Use the minimum amount of compound
necessary to retain the O-ring during assembly.
Incorrect application of retention compound to O-rings
11/29/21, 10:04 AM SIS 2.0
The required amount of retention compound will vary depending upon O-ring size. The work instructions should specify the location and number of
retention compound beads to be applied for retention of O-rings. Illustration provides an example of incorrect application of retention compound
after seal installation.
Correct application location for retention compound
Retention compounds (1) shall be applied sparingly (pea-size beads) into the bottom of the O-ring groove as shown in Illustration 30. Use the
minimum amount of compound necessary to retain the O-ring during assembly. The required amount of retention compound will vary depending
upon O-ring size. The work instructions should specify the location and number of retention compound beads to be applied for retention of O-rings.
Overfilling of groove with retention compound
Overfilling the groove (Illustration 31) can cause the seal to be displaced, and may result in the compound getting into areas, such as threads,
where the overfilling may have an adverse effect on torque, and incur high cost of assembly.
Do not apply retention compounds with brushes or fingers, which can introduce contamination into the system. Use a proper dispensing method as
indicated above for proper application.
Do not apply retention compounds by submerging parts in a bag or box. Follow guidelines outlined in the Contamination Control Guidelines,
PEBJ0002, "Caterpillar Dealer Contamination Control Compliance Guide".
Apply retention compounds prior to assembly. Do not preassemble components where retention compounds are used.
Components preworked and stacked
Do not pre-work components or stack assembled parts as this increases the risk of contamination and seal damage (Illustration 32).
11/29/21, 10:04 AM SIS 2.0
If the retention compound squishes out of a joint or groove, too much has been applied. Use a lint-free wipe to remove excess retention compound
and clean surface thoroughly.
Recommended Cleaning Wipes:

Chemtool CT Clean 15861 Wipe With Cleaner - Cat Part Number 169-5420 .
Chemtool Lint-Free Wipes - Cat Part Number 265-2256 .
Kimtex Lint-Free Polypropylene Towels - Dealer Tools & Supplies: 265-2256 (06179 Kimtech Pure* W5)
New Pig low-lint wipes, Part Number WIP230, or WIP232 from New Pig Corporation.
Assembly
Visually inspect the mating parts to ensure that all surfaces are clean and free from damage such as nicks or burrs.
When O-rings and other elastomeric seals are assembled in face grooves that are vertical or inverted, a retention compound may be needed to
keep the seal in place.
Install the O-ring immediately before the joint is assembled to reduce chances of the O-ring falling out.
Place O-ring in the groove and verify that O-ring is fully placed or seated. Avoid spiraling O-ring during installation.
Install mating face perpendicular to the plane of the groove. Do not slide mating face across the O-ring.
Torque all mating component fasteners immediately.
O-RINGS INSTALLED IN RADIAL SEAL JOINTS

Background

11/29/21, 10:04 AM SIS 2.0
Seal in groove
(1) Seal
Radial sealing depends upon proper seating of the seal in the groove and maintaining this condition during assembly of the joint. Improper
assembly practices increase the likelihood of leaking joints. An example of a radial O-ring application is shown in Illustration 33. This document
addresses both Seal-in-Bore (Housing) (Illustration 34), and Seal-in-Piston (Shaft) (Illustration 35) designs.
Handling
O-rings should not be stretched or twisted beyond what is necessary for installation. O-rings should not be deformed in any manner.
Contact of the O-ring with threads or other sharp objects should be prevented as the contact risks cutting, nicking, or damaging the seal.
Assembly Aids - Seal Lubricants

When O-rings and other elastomeric seals are assembled into radial seal joints, a lubricant is necessary to reduce spiraling, skiving, cutting, and
abrasion. Lubricants also reduce the force required to assemble the joint.
Lubricants shall be stored in properly identified, clean, closable containers that are kept closed between uses. Consult the Contamination Control
Do not use petroleum (Vaseline), any adhesive, or unapproved grease as a lubricant.
Lubricants shall not be used on PTFE coated seals or STOR/ORFS seals.
Assembly Aid - Approved Seal Lubricants

PTFE Coating
PTFE coating is a dry lubricant that should be used on all radial seals. The PTFE coating is added by the manufacturer.
P-80
P-80 may be used as a universal seal lubricant. P-80 is compatible with all sealing elastomers. P-80 dries quickly so P-80 is unlikely to drip out and
create the false appearance of a fluid leak.
P-80 must NOT be used on STOR/ORFS seals. P-80 or any other lubricant used on a STOR/ORFS can affect final torque and cause thread
stretching.
The use of P-80 on all other PTFE coated seals is acceptable.
Fluid Being Sealed

For oil and fuel joints, the fluid being sealed may be used as a lubricant.
Note: Lubricants must not be used on fluid line connectors (STOR/ORFS) fittings.
Low Pressure AC Line Lubricants

For low-pressure air conditioner lines use the following approved lubricant:
Mineral Seal Oil - McMaster Carr Part No. 3190K281
Lubricant Dispensers
11/29/21, 10:04 AM SIS 2.0
Spray bottle
The recommended method for applying a lubricant is with a small nozzle spray bottle (Illustration 36).
Dispose of lubricant containers that have become internally contaminated.
Lubricant Application
Lubricants are low viscosity fluids that shall be used only on radial seal joints.
Seal lubricant shall always be applied to the primary sealing surface. For example, if the seal is in a groove in the shaft, then the bore is the primary
sealing surface. Optionally, lubricant may also be applied to the seal.
Apply wet lubricants at the time of assembly. Do not apply the lubricant in advance.
The application of lubricants shall not introduce debris onto the seal or sealing surface.
Do not apply seal lubricants with brushes or fingers, which can introduce contamination into the system. Avoid the use of brushes that shed fibers.
When using lubricant dispensers such as spray bottles, exercise extreme caution and prevent overspray onto other areas, such as threads, as it
may have an adverse effect on torque. Cover all components that must not be lubricated before lubricating. Follow the Contamination Control
Over-spray of lubricants can lead to false leaks. Over-spray of lubricants on threads can adversely affect torque on the connection leading to a
loose and leaky joint.
Before using P-80 lubricant, shake well to ensure proper mixing of lubricant.
Apply lubricants only at the time of assembly. Lubricants, especially P-80, may dry up or leak out of the joint if applied in advance.
For low-pressure air conditioner lines, lubricate the O-ring with mineral oil.
Tooling – Inspection
Inspect tooling before use for contamination and damage that in the form of nicks, gouges, or missing material.
Improperly maintained cone and pusher tooling can cause seal damage that may be in the form of cuts, nicks, or tearing of seal. Damage to the
seal increases the risk of leaks.
If the cone or pusher is damaged, stop using the tool immediately and report the issue to the supervisor and processor/planner for immediate
replacement.
ASSEMBLY TOOLING:
Routine Maintenance - All seal-specific tooling should be placed on a routine maintenance schedule similar to the torque-tooling schedule.
Reporting Damage - A formal reporting process shall be established at every dealer to report damaged tooling.
Replacement Tooling - To reduce the risk of downtime and use of an unapproved tool due to tooling damage, replacement tooling shall be in
inventory and available for immediate use. Damaged tools should be replaced immediately since using a damaged tool increases the risk of seal
damage or leaks.
Assembly
11/29/21, 10:04 AM SIS 2.0
Cleaning of groove for brake seal
Visually inspect mating parts for contamination or damage (nicks, scratches burrs, and so on). Use a clean lint-free wipe to remove contamination if
present from the groove (Illustration 37). Follow the Contamination Control Guidelines, PEBJ0002, "Caterpillar Dealer Contamination Control
Compliance Guide".
Install the seal into the groove immediately before the joint is assembled to reduce chances of the seal being damaged during transit or handling.
Place the seal in the groove. Do not stretch or deform the seal any more than is necessary. Do not allow the seal to contact threads or other sharp
objects. Verify that the seal is fully seated. Avoid spiraling seal during installation - the seal should be pushed into position rather than rolled. Use
an approved assembly aid when appropriate.
For installation of two-piece seals (example: some brake seals) first install the rubber energizer and then install the cap piece over the rubber
energizer.
Lubricate the seal with the fluid being sealed before installing seal.
Lubricate the seal prior to assembly to reduce risk of contamination, run-off, or dry out of seal lubricant.
Do NOT install contaminated seals.
Contaminated seals that cannot be removed and reinstalled using the proper assembly techniques must be cleaned thoroughly using a clean lint-
free wipe to reduce risk of damage to the seal. Contaminated seals that are removed should be scrapped using the non-conforming material
process to prevent risk of contamination to the system.
For groove in bore applications lubricate the inside diameter of the seal.
For groove in piston applications lubricate the outside diameter of the seal.
Take care when inserting the shaft into the bore. Make sure that the mating parts are properly aligned prior to insertion. Assemble at a slow,
uniform rate. Do NOT use impact tools such as hammers when installing assemblies using radial seals.
For larger piston/bore diameters (example: brake seals), use a hydraulic press to ensure proper seating of the seal and piston to bore alignment.
Consider installing shaft (piston) vertically into the housing to better center the shaft in the housing for some larger piston/bore diameters (example:
brake seals) applications.
