I need to split the brake callipers and do not want to wait for Moss to ship me the little seal 583-820

I have googled and think it is .068 thick x .5 OD x 11/32 ID but would like confirmation as this is a critical part

Does anyone know the size of this little square seal
 
This part was referenced on a previous.

I have split the calipers to rebuild a few times and have had no problems. Just make sure you get new square profile O-rings from either British Car Specialists or Pegasus. Bolt them back together tightly and you're good to go.

I had no need to split my calipers and, therefore, have no personal experience. I would call Pegasus and ask them to verify their use on our calipers.

Good luck,
