The stop-leak experts at Bar’s Leaks offer these five tips for sealing and preventing leaks in virtually any hydraulic system, including those in construction, farming, manufacturing, forestry, mining, vehicle repair, waste management and other industrial equipment.

Key Points: 
  • The stop-leak experts at Bar’s Leaks offer these five tips for sealing and preventing leaks in virtually any hydraulic system, including those in construction, farming, manufacturing, forestry, mining, vehicle repair, waste management and other industrial equipment.
  • Bar’s Leaks Hydraulic Seal (p/n H60) not only seals hydraulic system leaks, it also reduces friction and wear, extends hydraulic fluid and system life, and renews seals and O-rings.
  • “Bar’s Leaks Hydraulic Seal fixes stubborn, hard-to-find hydraulic fluid leaks while at the same time cleaning and treating the system to help it run cooler and last longer, keep seals soft and pliable, and prevent future leaks from forming.”
    Hydraulic Seal contains a high-quality zinc-based additive package along with viscosity modifiers that restore thermal stability in the hydraulic system.
  • The polymers in Bar’s Leaks Hydraulic Seal form a film between the seal and the shaft to help prevent leaks.
