(*) 8507014/P : green SKF Seals material is known to be good.  Here is the ‘BUT’ : It is the meaning of many Bike Shops and my own, that the green SKF dust seals 8507014 are not as good as the 850716 ones from Marzocchi!
For some reasons SK# dropped  the 2nd inner lip which is used to protect the incomming of outer dust. I think they did it for gliding and friction purposes and for sure for some marketing hypes.
=> YES, the green SK# has less  friction, BUT it does not protect that much against outer mud any more!! 🙄⛑🔧🙏

As this (the 2nd lip) is some of the most important features in ALL older seals types – which has been copied by various other brands and seals types – and as I have seen such green forks with lots of mud inside I decided to go the Marzocchi style including the 2nd lip!!🦾
