Van,

Depending on the orientation of your cylinder, see if you can end for end it. We routinely do this at work on the ship if it can be done. That way the seal rides in a different "better" spot than it was and will be somewhat ok till the next time. Of course you can only do t his once, then it has to go over the side.
