Description
If you’ve got a Dexta or Super Dexta that’s getting sluggish when you raise the three-point hitch or notice hydraulic fluid puddles under the tractor, chances are good your hydraulic cylinder seals are giving up the ghost. Worn seals allow internal bypassing – fluid takes the easy path around worn seals instead of building pressure where you need it. This piston seal is what keeps the pressure on the right side of the cylinder so your hydraulics work like they’re supposed to.
What You’re Getting
- Direct replacement for your original seal – no modifications needed
- High-pressure design that handles the demands of three-point hitch work
- Quality construction that resists hydraulic fluid breakdown over time
- Precision fit that stops internal leaking and restores proper operation
Built for Real Farm Work
The Fordson Dexta and Super Dexta were solid little workhorses back in their day, and many are still earning their keep on smaller farms and hobby operations. These compact tractors might not have the power of today’s machines, but they’re perfect for mowing, light cultivation, and general farm maintenance. The hydraulic system on these tractors keeps the three-point hitch working smoothly for your implements.
Made to Last
This seal is built to handle the constant pressure cycles and temperature changes that come with hydraulic work. All the seals have endured the same heat cycles, pressure spikes, and contamination. Fix one and another fails within weeks. That’s why it’s smart to address seal problems before they leave you stranded with a hitch that won’t lift.
Installation Notes
Replacing this seal means pulling the hydraulic cylinder apart, so plan on having the tractor down for a bit. The key to success is cleanliness – any contamination ruins new seals immediately. Use assembly lube on all seals during installation – dry assembly causes immediate seal damage. While you’re in there, it’s a good time to check the cylinder bore for scoring and replace your hydraulic filter.
