Product description

The Western 8-1/2 inch Rubber Wiper (BH-1778-2B) is a critical exterior seal for Western in-ground lifts, serving as the first line of defense against contaminants. It replaces the U-232 OEM part and is mounted at the top of the cylinder to wipe the ram clean as it retracts. This action prevents dirt, water, and shop debris from entering the main hydraulic chamber, where they could damage the primary packings or the cylinder wall. A fresh wiper is essential for maintaining the overall health of the hydraulic system and preventing expensive internal repairs. This SVI wiper is made from a durable, oil-resistant rubber that stands up to constant outdoor and indoor exposure.
