Landing gear strut packing seals shrink due to fluctuating weather conditions and age. This specially engineered hydraulic chemical additive leaves a protective coating on the strut shaft and allows the seal to expand to its normal size. It will stop strut leaks and is an excellent lubricant and corrosion preventative. Application is fast and easy - any owner or pilot can do the job in minutes. FAA approved. Manufacturer has no stated shelf life.

I used this product over 10 years ago on the strut on my cessna 172. Is was going flat everytive it got real cold out. It worked wonders and it has been over 10 years and I still have not had to rebuild the strut and it has not gone flat. Can't guarantee it will work for you but is worth a try. |

We have used this product on a wide variety of airplanes from Cessna 150's to 421's. Bottom line: it works. We're dealing with 50 + year old airplanes that have a fair amount of wear on the barrels and other components. Granville's additive makes a significant difference with zero negative side effects. |

Have used Granville Strut Seal since 2002 and it works great. Only problem, and it is a small one...the plastic tube is to big to go into the opening where the air valve is.. |

I was dubious about this product when I first bought it. To me, it seems a bit like snake oil a magic elixir providing an easy fix. However, I thought it worth the gamble compared to the labor and cost involved in disassembling the strut. That was six months ago and the strut hasnt leaked since, so Im now buying a second bottle to keep on hand for when one of the other struts start to show a problem. |

There was no black tube as stated in the instructions. What tubing was there was too short to reach anything. Ran around for another hour and fortyfive minutes trading to find something to fit with no luck. As for the sealing part I havent been back to the airport to see. |

How many ounces of Granville strut seal fluid come in a three strut kit? I bought a kit some time back and not sure if it is a three strut or single strut kit.
