Sea & Sea Silicone Grease for O-Rings

O-rings are the most important components of your underwater camera system. If the O-ring is lubricated, it will be elastic enough to shape itself uniformly around the channel providing a proper seal. If it is dry, there will be too much friction to allow it to reshape itself uniformly. It will not safeguard against flooding. Underwater photographic equipment cannot be watertight unless the O-rings that seal it are flawless. O-rings may be cleaned with fresh water and then lubricated with Sea & Sea Silicone Grease. It is important to use only the suggested silicone grease by the manufacturer. Other types of- grease may cause the O-Ring to become gummy and attracting debris. Every time you open the photographic equipment to change film or batteries, examine the O-ring and service if necessary. Always clean and lubricate after every diving day. Sea & Sea recommends you only use Sea & Sea Silicone Grease on Sea & Sea products. O-Ring Grease makes a great safe-a-dive-kit item and you should keep one in your camera bag or case. Use Sea & Sea's O-ring remover tool (see SKU SSORR) when removing O-ring to lubricate. Grease comes in a convenient resealable 0.16 oz. (4.5g) squeeze tube.
