Hello all
Can anybody here help with identifying the correct size and length of bolt on the swivel seals, and am I right in thinking that there are eight bolts on each seal?

Thanks for the info on that
I'm sort of preparing myself for the job - I'm very limited on metric nuts and bolts but think I might have some stainless M6 bolts that are long enough that I can cut down if needed.
Hopefully mine will be reusable
I just want to be prepared and not caught out

Galvanic corrosion. Don't use stainless, they will never come back out. Most of the holes are blind and would be an utter mess to get the remnants of little stainless screws out of.

Your quite right Lambbert.
Luckily I have a tub of
THIS
- we use it on jet engine casing bolts that get up to some horrific temperatures. Never had a seized bolt.
Unbelievably its made by Bostik - a company that usually make products for gluing things together!

I suspected that you might have something like that given your field of endeavour. Better safe than sorry.

For those who don't know what we're talking about things like the below Google image happen when you have 2 dissimilar metals in direct contact.

Aircraft suffer mostly from where alloy structure has steel fasteners go through it
