    DBC 3" Series Dry Disconnects Reassembly Prior to reassembly, inspect all components for damage especially scratches to the sealing surfaces. Pay close attention to the BODY, POPPET, SEAL CYLINDER, STUFFING BOX, and main SHAFT. If you are re-using any seals, inspect them to make sure there are no cracks or locations showing wear.
