This Replacement 'O' Ring is specifically designed for the Substrobe DS-125/DS-160 battery door. Its compatibility with other camera models is not guaranteed.
The frequency of replacement depends on use and maintenance. It's recommended to examine the 'O' Ring every time you open your camera to change film or batteries, and replace it if you're in doubt about its sealing capability.
Lubrication keeps the 'O' Ring elastic, allowing it to mold itself perfectly around the channel for a secure seal. It also protects the 'O' Ring from abrasion.
Silicone grease is recommended as it protects the 'O' Ring from abrasion without sealing it. Over-greasing can attract debris that disrupts the seal and leads to flooding.
If the 'O' Ring is damaged, it should be replaced immediately to ensure the watertight integrity of your camera system. Always use an 'O' Ring remover tool to avoid damage.

You can trust the durable and high-quality Replacement "O" Ring for the Battery Door of Substrobe DS-125/DS-160 to keep your underwater photographic equipment watertight and secure. This essential component, specifically designed for the Substrobe DS-125/DS-160, ensures a flawless seal, protecting your camera system from potential water damage.
Remember, the integrity of your underwater photography and videography relies heavily on the condition of your O-rings. To maintain optimal performance, always keep spare O-rings in your camera case. A well-lubricated O-ring remains elastic, allowing it to perfectly mold itself around the channel, providing a secure seal. Conversely, a dry O-ring can lead to excessive friction, preventing it from reshaping uniformly and compromising its ability to prevent flooding.
Every time you open your camera to change film or batteries, take a moment to examine the O-ring and service it if necessary. Regular cleaning and lubrication after each diving day will prolong the life of your O-ring and ensure its effectiveness.
If you're ever uncertain about the sealing capability of an O-ring, it's best to err on the side of caution and replace it with a new one. Always use the O-ring remover tool and avoid using sharp or pointed objects that could damage the O-ring.
Remember, over-greasing can attract debris that disrupts the seal and leads to flooding. Silicone grease is not a sealant; it only protects the O-ring from abrasion. A perfectly greased O-ring should appear moist and shiny.
Invest in the reliable and long-lasting Replacement "O" Ring for the Battery Door of Substrobe DS-125/DS-160, and ensure the longevity and performance of your underwater camera system.
