[QUOTE="SRAD97750, post: 90268, member: 425"] SO, according to boyles law. Imagine a fork tube is 5 cubic inches at atmospheric pressure (14.7) Fully compressed it might decrease the volume by 2.5 cubic inches(half). So your looking at 29.14 psia (14.7psig) inside pressing on the seal. Seal is approx .5 square inch of surface area when you factor in flanges and actual exposed internal surface So approx 7 psi pressing on each seal when fully compressed(tied down). A party balloon requires 2.5 psi to be inflated... [/QUOTE]
