Description
Overview
The Argomarine Fork Lever Seal Billet is engineered for billet-machined housings used in marine gear selector and control assemblies. This fork lever seal keeps lubricant in and contaminants out, supporting smooth lever action and longer service life in demanding environments. The component shown here corresponds to Part Number AM1036B.
Features
- Purpose-built lever shaft seal sized for billet housings
- Metal-cased body with elastomer sealing lip for durable service
- Compact radial profile for easy seating in a machined bore
- Suitable for gearbox selectors and marine linkage mechanisms

Compatibility and Fitment
Confirm inner diameter, outer diameter and seating depth against the removed seal and the billet housing bore before installation. Lightly oil the lip and press the seal squarely into the recess using a flat driver that contacts the case, not the lip.
Compliance and Safety
Work to standard marine workshop safety practices. Avoid sharp tools on the sealing lip. After assembly, cycle the lever and check for leaks at operating temperature. Replace adjacent gaskets or o-rings if worn to maintain sealing integrity.
Marine Applications
Common uses include selector fork shafts and control levers in inboard transmissions and driveline housings. The Argomarine Fork Lever Seal Billet helps maintain lubricant levels, reduces contamination, and supports consistent shift quality across service intervals.
Why Choose Argomarine
Argomarine focuses on legacy drivetrain components and exact-fit replacements. Each AM1036B fork lever seal is supplied to support precise billet housings where standard seals may not seat correctly.
