A look at this great new product from Redline Motors!
Every once in a while a new product comes out on the market that makes you say "Now why didn't I think of that!?!"... well the Pushrod Seal Mounts from Redline Motors are a perfect example of this! They are so simple in design yet so very functional you wonder how it took so long for someone to come up with the idea.
I first noticed them on RCBoatBid.com and just had to give them a try. I ordered a pair and received them very promptly.
The pushrod mounts are machined from aluminum and are designed to work with Aeromarine Laminates radio box seals (p/n: 6018) to provide a positive seal yet allow for easy maintenance.

| Pair of seals. This what you get. Notice the 3 small grooves on the end that is to be glued into the radio box. The large groove at the opposite end is for the seal to fit onto. |
Shown here with the Aeromarine 6018 seals. *note: seals not included with the mounts. | Seal installed on the mount ready to be mounted to the radio box. The fit is nice and tight and will ensure a leak-free installation assuming the mount is properly glued to the radio box. |
How do they work? Simple, you permanently glue the mount to your radio box and slip on the Aeromarine seal. The drill size for the mount is 3/8". Below are some pictures demonstrating a typical installation.

In my opinion, these should be on everyone's parts list for their upcoming builds! A really neat and innovative product from Redline Performance Motors.
The Pushrod Seal Mounts can often be purchased on RCBoatBid.com from Redline Performance Motors or directly from their website listed below.
Happy Boating!
