Bob, the seal that popped out from aft bulkhead had no indications of sealant on it!
Anyway, I may have a few seals coming from David, and will seal appropriately. Thanks

I use RTV Silicone Gasket Adhesive Permatex 81724
The actual seals are only by David or Bob. Bob posted a video on making your own:

Thanks! Are these a friction-fit or are the sealed? If sealed, what with?
Is there a commercial source for these? Haven't seen offered at the DryDocks.
Thanks!Leave a comment:

As David shows here, easy to replace, I find inserting a 1/16” rod helps inserting into encap1 Photo👍 1Leave a comment:

Thanks David and Tom! I'm interested if you're parting with those! And yes, the 1/4" seal bodies to accept 1/16" rod.

In David's green photo above the first item is using a cup seal (great for prop shaft) and the other two are o-rings cast in resin. Those are typically for pushrods, but some also use for prop shafts.
Peace,
Tom👍 1Leave a comment:

End cap seal failures
What's the best way to install/seal which runs thru end caps to prevent leakage? Two of my seals thru endacp (they appear to be a synthetic rubber material) leak, and the seal from servo to rudder control separated from my endcap completely. Thanks!Tags: None
