238-4462 is an aftermarket hydraulic cylinder seal kit for selected Caterpillar equipment with a 2 in rod and 3 in bore reference. It is not limited to one cylinder function: published references associate this kit with motor grader blade lift and centershift cylinders, plus selected articulated-truck hydraulic cylinder groups. Examples include cylinder groups 132-4929, 262-1900, 262-1907, 262-1908, 335-1973, and 335-1974. Because one kit number serves multiple machine applications, match the original 238-4462 reference or cylinder group before ordering.

Size: Standard Size
Q: Is 238-4462 only for a motor grader blade lift cylinder?
A: No. Blade lift is one published application, but this kit is also associated with centershift and selected truck cylinder groups. Use the original kit number or cylinder group for confirmation.
Q: What cylinder size is associated with 238-4462?
A: Published references identify a 2 in rod and 3 in bore. These measurements are useful for cross-checking but should not replace original part-number matching.
Q: Which cylinder group numbers can use 238-4462?
A: Published references include 132-4929, 262-1900, 262-1907, 262-1908, 270-7534, 335-1973, 335-1974, and 6E-1338. Machine serial range and cylinder configuration may still affect fitment.
Q: Can I submit only 238-4462 for a quotation?
A: Yes. For a known original seal-kit number, submit 238-4462 and quantity for direct aftermarket matching. A purchasing list with multiple part numbers can be quoted together.

OEM seal kits are the right choice when machinery is under active warranty, operating at peak duty cycles, or when failure risk is unacceptably high. Budget aftermarket—like Ruijue Parts—makes sense in these common scenarios:
When a machine is aging out of your fleet, OEM parts cost more than the job warrants. A budget kit extends service life without over-investing.
For machines used infrequently or on lower-intensity tasks, premium OEM pricing may not be justified.
When OEM stock is out or delivery takes weeks, an available aftermarket kit gets your machine running now.
Repair shops and fleet managers running high volumes of machines often balance OEM and aftermarket across their portfolio based on criticality.
Fully retract the cylinder and relieve system pressure before disassembly. Never work on a pressurized circuit.
Remove from the machine. Unthread the gland nut and withdraw the piston rod carefully to avoid surface damage.
Clean the bore, rod, and all metal parts with a lint-free cloth. Contamination introduced during reassembly accelerates seal wear—this step is especially important for budget-grade seals.
Check for scoring or pitting. Budget seals are more sensitive to surface imperfections—address rod damage before fitting new seals.
Lightly coat each seal with clean hydraulic fluid before installation. Use proper seal drivers — not screwdrivers or sharp tools — to avoid nicking the sealing lip.
Torque the gland nut to spec and cycle the hydraulic system under no-load conditions. Inspect for leaks before returning the machine to service.
Budget-grade seals may have shorter service intervals than OEM. Inspect rod seals for moisture, oil film, or weeping more frequently and replace proactively.
Contaminated fluid degrades seals faster — this applies especially to non-OEM materials. Replace fluid and filters on schedule.
When storing equipment with cylinders extended, protect rod surfaces from corrosion and debris to preserve wiper seal life.
Avoid using sharp tools during assembly to prevent nicks or scores on the seal lips. Pre-lubricating all components with clean hydraulic oil is recommended to ensure a smooth fit into the cylinder grooves.
