Maintain the peak hydraulic efficiency of your Rammer G130 with the Merit Precision Seal Carrier. The seal carrier is a vital internal component that houses the main piston seals and guides the piston during its high-velocity percussion cycle. As a precision-engineered part, the 112314 ensures that your seals are held in perfect alignment, preventing pressure leaks and extending the life of your breaker’s internal hydraulic circuit.

Why the Seal Carrier (112314) is Critical for the G130
The Rammer G130 is a powerhouse in the G-series, requiring extreme internal stability. A worn or damaged seal carrier can lead to catastrophic hammer failure. Merit’s carrier is built to handle these demands:
1. Perfect Seal Sealing
If the internal grooves of the seal carrier become worn or pitted, the hydraulic seals cannot sit correctly. Merit’s 112314 carrier is machined with a mirror-smooth finish, ensuring that your seal kit (like the 3363 series) creates a 100% airtight and oil-tight barrier against the piston.
2. High-Pressure Stability
The seal carrier must withstand the high-frequency pressure spikes of the G130’s hydraulic system. Our carriers are made from heat-treated alloy steel that resists deformation, ensuring the housing stays round and true even after thousands of hours of heavy breaking.
3. Piston Alignment
The carrier acts as a primary guide for the piston. Merit ensures that the concentricity of the carrier matches OEM specifications exactly. This prevents the piston from “tilting” or scuffing the cylinder walls, which is the most common cause of expensive breaker repairs.
Maintenance Tip: When to Replace the Seal Carrier?
While seal kits are changed frequently, the Seal Carrier (112314) should be inspected during every full overhaul:
- Check for Scoring: If the internal walls of the carrier show visible scratches or “grooving,” it will destroy new seals almost instantly.
- Inspect the Grooves: Ensure the seal seating grooves are sharp and free of debris. Any “rounding” of these edges can cause seals to extrude under pressure.
- Compatibility Check: When replacing the carrier, always install a brand-new Merit G130 Seal Kit to ensure a factory-tight fit from day one.
