FAQs
Are these O-rings suitable for high-pressure water pipes?
They are designed for standard household pressure. For high-pressure industrial systems, please consult the manufacturer's pressure rating specifications.
Can I reuse these O-rings after removing them?
It is not recommended. O-rings often compress and take the shape of the fitting; reusing them frequently results in a compromised seal.
What material are these rings made from?
They are manufactured from high-quality, durable elastomer compounds suitable for standard plumbing and automotive use.
Do I need any special tools to install these?
No, these are designed for manual installation. You should avoid using sharp metal tools to pry them into place as this can nick the rubber.
How do I know if this is the correct size for my project?
Use a digital caliper to measure the inner groove diameter of your fitting. It should match the 23.4mm ID of the O-ring for a secure fit.
Troubleshooting
The seal continues to leak after installation
Check if the ring was twisted during installation or if the groove contains debris.
Difficulty sliding the ring over the fitting
Apply a small amount of silicone-based plumber's grease to the ring to reduce friction.
The ring feels loose in the fitting
Verify that your fitting measurements strictly align with the 30mm OD and 23.4mm ID specifications.
Ideal for diverse applications including automotive and plumbing
Standardized dimensions ensure consistent fitting
Cons
Requires precise measurement of current fitting for success
Not intended for extreme high-temperature industrial chemical environments
Single-use item, should not be reused after removal
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation: Ensure the old O-ring is completely removed and the channel or groove is cleaned of any grit, scale, or old adhesive.
Installation: Gently stretch the O-ring over the fitting, ensuring it is not twisted as it slides into the groove. A twisted ring will not seat correctly and may result in a leak.
Compatibility: Verify that your fitting specifically calls for a 30mm OD and 23.4mm ID. If the fitting is slightly larger or smaller, this part may not provide a safe seal.
Care: Avoid exposing the rings to harsh solvents or petroleum-based lubricants unless specified, as these can degrade the rubber compound over time. Store spare rings in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight to prevent cracking.
