Radflo 2.5 Shock Seal Kit for 7/8" Shaft
SEALKIT 011
The Radflo 2.5 Shock Seal Kit for 7/8" Shaft is a complete replacement seal package designed to restore proper sealing performance in rebuildable Radflo 2.5 shocks equipped with a 7/8" (0.875") shaft. Whether you are performing routine suspension maintenance or a complete shock rebuild, this kit provides the critical sealing components needed to maintain oil retention, nitrogen pressure, and consistent damping performance.
Heat cycles, pressure changes, shaft movement, and off-road contamination gradually wear shock seals and can lead to oil leaks, pressure loss, and reduced suspension performance. Replacing worn seals helps extend shock service life, protect internal components, and keep your Radflo coilover, smooth-body, or remote-reservoir shock operating as intended.
Includes:
- Required replacement seal components for one Radflo 2.5 shock with a 7/8" shaft

Tech Insight
What are the signs that a shock needs new seals?
Common symptoms include oil around the shaft or seal head, reduced damping control, inconsistent suspension response, or recurring nitrogen-pressure loss. The shock should be disassembled and inspected before assuming the seals are the only worn components.
Why is shaft diameter important?
Radflo seal kits are matched to the dimensions of the shaft and seal head. A kit designed for a 7/8" shaft will not properly fit a different shaft size, even when the shocks share the same 2.5" body diameter.
How do replacement seals protect the shock?
Shock seals help retain suspension fluid, contain internal pressure, and limit dirt and moisture from reaching internal wear surfaces. Maintaining this sealing system helps preserve valving performance and protects the shaft, rod guide, piston, and shock body.
Can this kit be installed without special equipment?
A proper shock rebuild requires safe nitrogen discharge, complete disassembly, component inspection, correct fluid filling and bleeding, and nitrogen recharging. Professional shock-service equipment and experience are strongly recommended.
Does replacing the seals return every worn shock to like-new condition?
Not necessarily. The shaft, rod guide, piston wear band, bearings, reservoir components, and shock body should also be inspected during service. Damaged or excessively worn components may require replacement in addition to the seal kit.
