What sets the O-Ring for Video Housings DC572 & DC200 apart is its impeccable design and high-quality construction, making it an essential component for your underwater photography equipment. Crafted by Ikelite, this durable O-ring is specifically engineered to provide a flawless seal for your camera system, ensuring it remains watertight even in the most challenging underwater conditions.
This reliable O-ring plays a pivotal role in safeguarding your camera from potential flooding. When properly lubricated, it exhibits enough elasticity to uniformly shape itself around the channel, reducing friction and enhancing its sealing capability. Conversely, a dry O-ring may not reshape itself uniformly, compromising its ability to protect against water ingress.
The O-Ring for Video Housings DC572 & DC200 is not just a spare part; it's an investment in the longevity of your underwater camera system. It's recommended to examine the O-ring every time you open your camera to change film and service it if necessary. Regular cleaning and lubrication after each diving day can significantly extend its lifespan.
Remember, silicone grease is not a sealant but a protector against abrasion. An optimally greased O-ring should appear moist and shiny, not overloaded with grease, which can attract debris and disrupt the seal. Always use the O-ring remover tool for removal to prevent any damage.
Choose the O-Ring for Video Housings DC572 & DC200 for its durability, compatibility, and affordability. It's a versatile accessory that ensures a secure and reliable fit, making it an indispensable part of your underwater photography toolkit.
