Pelican Replacement O-Ring for 1610 and 1620 Case

Because the integrity of your underwater photography equipment hinges on the flawless condition of the O-rings that seal it, it's essential to always have spare O-rings in your camera case. These high-quality, durable O-rings are the cornerstone of your underwater camera system, designed to provide a reliable and sturdy seal against water, dust, and other elements.

When properly lubricated, these long-lasting O-rings have the elasticity to mold uniformly around the channel, ensuring a watertight seal. However, if left dry, they may not reshape uniformly due to excessive friction, compromising their ability to protect against flooding.

Every time you open your camera to change film, it's crucial to inspect 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 maintain its sealing capability.

If there's any doubt about the sealing ability of an O-ring, it's always best to discard and replace it with this reliable replacement O-ring designed for the 1610 and 1620 case. Remember, never use a sharp or pointed object to remove an O-ring! Instead, use the appropriate O-ring remover tool.

Avoid over-greasing as excessive grease can attract debris that may disrupt the seal and cause flooding. Silicone grease is not a sealant; it only serves to protect the O-ring from abrasion. A perfectly greased O-ring should appear moist and shiny, ready to safeguard your valuable underwater photographic equipment.
