Replacing seals at service intervals is far cheaper than replacing what a failed seal damages. Static seals and dynamic seals are not interchangeable even in the same size. Öhlins builds the head so the dust seal takes the grit before it reaches the oil seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Original\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tolerances here are the ones the unit was assembled to, not a pattern equivalent's interpretation of them. The part is identical to what Öhlins fits in production — same supplier, same specification. Service parts are supplied per piece unless the description says otherwise. If you are unsure which number your unit takes, send us the model and serial number of the damper and we will look it up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Be Sure It Fits\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart number 06229-03 is unambiguous; the description alone is not, because Öhlins uses similar wording across sizes. Öhlins states inner diameter 42.2 mm, outer diameter 16 mm for this number, and those figures are the deciding ones. A seal that has taken a set no longer springs back and starts to weep. The bushing inside carries the side load so the seal only has to seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFitting service parts means opening a pressurised unit. As an authorised Öhlins service centre we do that here, with the right tools and a dyno check afterwards — just ask.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eBrand:\u003c\/em\u003e Öhlins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/em\u003e 06229-03\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCategory:\u003c\/em\u003e Seal Heads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eInner Diameter:\u003c\/em\u003e 42.2 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eOuter Diameter:\u003c\/em\u003e 16 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/em\u003e Sweden\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Öhlins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53651432997130,"sku":"06229-03","price":34.36,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/06229-03_dc6695ee-4f2b-4a3a-9872-b094143db5cd.png?v=1788877698","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-gi\/products\/ohlins-seal-head-lower-42-2-16-06229-03","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
