FAQs

What material are the HAR seals made from?

The HAR seals are made from high-quality silicone material.

Are these seals compatible with all AQUATECH housings?

No, this specific set is designed for the AQUATECH EDGE MAX Water Housing Series only. Please check product details for compatibility with other series.

How often should I replace the HAR seals?

Replacement frequency depends on usage. Inspect seals regularly for wear and tear, and replace them if any damage is visible or if you notice a loss of sealing performance. It is recommended to replace them periodically as a preventative measure, especially before critical use.

Can I use standard petroleum jelly to lubricate the seals?

No, it is not recommended. Use only silicone-based O-ring lubricants to avoid damaging the silicone material.

What should I do if my housing leaks after replacing the seal?

First, re-inspect the seal for proper seating and any damage. Ensure the groove is clean and free of debris. Verify that all housing latches are securely closed. If the problem persists, contact AQUATECH Technical Sales.

How do I clean the HAR seals?

Clean the seals with fresh water and a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the silicone.

Does this set include seals for both the front and back of the housing?

Yes, this set contains user-replaceable HAR seals for both the front and back of the EDGE MAX Water Housing.

Troubleshooting

Housing leaks after seal replacement

Ensure the seal is correctly seated in the groove without twists. Check for any debris in the groove or on the seal. Verify the seal is the correct part number for your housing model and that the housing latches are fully secured.

Seal appears damaged or stretched

Inspect the seal for any tears or nicks. If damaged, replace it immediately. Avoid stretching the seal excessively during installation.

Difficulty installing the seal

Ensure the groove is clean. Consider applying a very light coat of silicone O-ring lubricant. Do not force the seal; it should seat relatively easily if aligned correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This HAR Seal Set is specifically designed for the AQUATECH EDGE MAX Water Housing Series. Ensure your housing model is compatible before installation.

Setup:

  1. Gently remove the old seal from the housing groove. Clean the groove thoroughly to remove any debris or old seal residue.
  2. Carefully inspect the new HAR Seal for any damage. Ensure it is clean.
  3. Lightly lubricate the seal with a silicone-based O-ring lubricant (not included) for easier installation and better sealing, if recommended by AQUATECH for your specific housing.
  4. Place the new seal into the housing groove, ensuring it sits evenly and is not twisted.
  5. Double-check that the seal is fully seated and makes continuous contact around the entire groove.

Care:

  • Clean seals regularly with fresh water and a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Store housings with seals lubricated and not under compression when not in use for extended periods.
  • Inspect seals before each use for nicks, tears, or signs of wear.
