Corner Seal Construction - Mazda RX-8 2004 Service Highlights

CORNER SEAL CONSTRUCTION

• The special cast iron corner seals maintain a gas seal while sweeping the side housing by the force of the
corner seal springs. In addition, the chrome plating on perimeter side of the corner seals has reduced wear on
the rotor installation holes.
• There are two types of corner seal diameters to match the inner diameters of the corner seal installation holes
on the rotor. To aid in the selection of the type of corner seal to be used when replacing corner seals,
identification marks have been provided on the rotor.
