I'm working on a Thompson Grinder Model "F". This model of grinder was made from the early 50's to the early 70's. I think this is an early one. It developed vibration in the table feed so I took the hydraulic table pistons apart. Some of the seals were broken or missing.
The pistons have u-shaped vented metal shields. I have not been able to find any information about these or find anything like them. Anyone know anything about this style of seals?
If I can't find them I think my alternative is to make/modify the pistons for a more modern seal.
