  Ring Sealing

• Description:

  This is a genuine Ford engine oil dipstick tube seal, a consumable rubber sealing ring built on the HR1 base that seals the oil dipstick tube to the engine on Ford diesel applications. Ford dealer catalogs list it as an Engine Oil Dipstick Tube Seal and sealing ring. It seats in a groove and is compressed when the dipstick tube is installed, forming an oil-tight seal that keeps engine oil contained at the tube connection. This is a single-use consumable seal: it should be replaced rather than reused whenever the dipstick tube is removed, because a compressed or aged ring will not seal reliably a second time. You will find it used on Ford E-Series and Super Duty applications including E-150, E-350 Super Duty, F-250, F-350, F-450, and F-550 Super Duty with the 6.7L diesel engine, with applications spanning a broad range of model years. These are representative examples rather than a complete list. A worn, cracked, or improperly seated seal causes an oil leak at the dipstick tube, which can lead to oil weeping or dripping, a burning oil smell, and over time a low oil level. Because it is an inexpensive consumable that protects against oil leaks, it is standard practice to fit a new seal during any dipstick tube service. Confirm the correct seal for your specific vehicle and engine against your VIN before ordering, since diesel engine seals vary by application.
