Hitachi 338160 — O‑ring (seal) for rotary hammer
Restore lost impact power and stop oil/air seepage with this genuine Hitachi O‑ring (part no. 338160). This resilient rubber sealing ring sits inside the hammer’s sealing system to maintain internal pressure for consistent striking performance and to prevent lubricant and air leaks that cause reduced impact force or erratic operation. It’s a direct, like‑for‑like replacement made to the original Hitachi specification and is intended for the sealing/piston area of the rotary hammer mechanism.
