I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but would any of you have recommendations as to where I can get this online first or preferably second hand at its best price?

Alternatively, do any of you have this book and you wouldn't mind selling?

My country is plenty small and my whole team of 4 scoured the entire place and every university/polytechnic/library and couldn't find it -_-; so I've no choice but to turn to the internet. At the same time, the amazon marketplace shuts my location out, which makes it more difficult.

Thanks in advance!

Just a self-update, I got it. Thanks nonetheless.
 
Just a word of advice to all of the people that post these kinds of threads...

You will not get any kind of real response because you are asking people to violate copyright.
 
I believe you misread "get it online" as "get it as an electronic document". I meant get it through online SHOPPING. I don't know what sort of copyright violation this would constitute. I thought it was fairly obvious when I said:

but would any of you have recommendations as to where I can get this online first or preferably second hand at its best price?

...mind selling?...

...amazon marketplace...

No insult intended, but don't you feel it's weird to assume I wanted a first or second hand... electronic document... :rolleyes:? Or for that matter, an electronic document at its... best price :rolleyes: ?

So indeed, your response seems like an imaginary response.

Edit: And I don't think there's anything wrong with the rest of your advice since it was meant in good-will - I even agree with it, which is why I am trying to buy the book. But the pronoun "you" is misused.

Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'

Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'

We have a molded carbon graphite seal that is used in an inline axial piston, variable displacement hydraulic pump. One of our customers reported that, when using the “A” parts in the past, they only needed to replace them due to normal wear. However, after switching to our parts, the replacement cycle seems to be much shorter due to “broken” or “cracked” failures. This issue was identified after hydraulic fluid leakage was observed. According to their records, the same problem has occurred...
