Features of this Product
Complete Seal Coverage: This kit provides a full set of seals to rebuild the hydraulic pump unit of a Wesco pallet jack, addressing all common leak points.
Designed for Wesco Jacks: Engineered to fit Wesco’s standard pallet truck models (T & E series), ensuring precise compatibility with the pump and ram components.
Stop Hydraulic Leaks: Replacing old seals with new ones will prevent oil leaks and prevent the jack from slowly lowering under load, a common issue that occurs when seals wear out.
Restore Lift Capacity: With new pressure seals and O-rings installed, your pallet jack can regain its full lifting capacity and operate like it did when new – no more sluggish or incomplete lifting.
High-Quality Materials: The seals in this kit are made from durable, oil-resistant rubber and polyurethane. They resist cracking and compression set, providing long-lasting performance after installation.
Standard Seal Kit: This is the standard seal kit for Wesco jacks, containing the manufacturer’s recommended replacement seals (equivalent to the original set). It’s ideal for routine maintenance and repair.
Cost-Effective Repair: Using this seal kit is far more economical than replacing the entire pump. It can significantly extend the service life of your pallet jack with minimal downtime.
No Extra Parts Needed: The package includes every O-ring, gasket, and seal required – you won’t need any additional seal components to complete the rebuild.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this an original Wesco seal kit or aftermarket?
A: This is an aftermarket seal kit made to exact OEM specifications. All sizes, materials, and tolerances match those of the original Wesco seals, ensuring identical performance and fit. Many professional repair shops use these kits because they are reliable, cost-effective, and designed for long service life in demanding conditions.
Q: What’s the difference between a “standard” and “super” seal kit?
A: The WE-270158 is a standard kit containing all seals originally used in the jack. A “super” kit, which is more common with other brands, includes the standard seals, as well as extra parts such as steel ball valves or wear rings. Wesco’s design typically doesn’t require those extras, so the standard kit is sufficient for a full reseal.
Q: Should I replace the pump or just the seals?
A: Replacing just the seals is the most cost-effective and practical first step, since seal wear is the leading cause of hydraulic issues. A pump replacement is only necessary if there is severe structural damage, such as a bent shaft or cracked housing. Trying a seal kit first can restore full function without the high cost of replacing the pump.
Q: What hydraulic fluid should I use?
A: Use a high-quality hydraulic jack oil, preferably ISO VG 32 grade. This oil has the correct viscosity and additives for smooth operation and long seal life. Do not use motor oil, brake fluid, or other non-hydraulic oils. After the rebuild, drain the old oil completely, then refill to the specified level with fresh hydraulic jack oil.
Q: How long do the new seals last?
A: Typically 3–5 years under normal use. Heavy loads, extreme temperatures, or poor maintenance can shorten the lifespan..
