Apex seals lifespan
I was looking at some shots of our engine and i was wondering ..............How long are our apex seals gonna last us?
They keep the chambers air tight and they seem to come into contact with the walls of the big cylinder alot. Im not sure of what they are made of but do any of you guys know about how long they last? (They seem friction prone)
Thanks for all the help guys its my first rotary!
