Hi to everyone (or anyone ) that remembers me!

Question: Anyone using/used these aluminium tip seals from rotary aviation??



http://www.rotaryaviation.com/apex_seals.htm



Thinking of using them in my rebuild, can't argue with the price!

Yeah true. 'Alloy' can be steel too. I just presumed it would be aluminum!

I would think alum. would melt under these conditions anyways.
