Could anyone suggest where I might purchase seals for my matco brakes.

You can get a whole box of assorted O-Rings in almost any motor factors for about £6. They come in standard sizes and are suitable for braking systems. If there's special seals required then Airworld or LAS.


Edit:- I'm guessing the part number range is MS28775-xxx. If you still want aircraft standard seals and the MS28775's aren't available, then any of the following series are good to use :- M83248/1-xxx, M83248/2-xxx, M83461/1-xxx. I can't remember if the AN6227 range follows the same sizing sequence but they were obsolescent years ago. That's not to say they're not useable!

Have you tried Matco direct? I dealt with them directly for my tailwheel parts and they were very helpful. They have part numbers on their website..

The turth is that I did not need to replace seals ,I was either pumping out the excess oil that I had put in ,or they seals had swollen and are now working 😃 so I now have a permit and I am getting the hangof steering my Avid ,
