Sea & Sea Silicone Grease for O-Rings

Sea & Sea recommends you only use Sea and Sea Silicone Grease for O-rings on Sea & Sea products.

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.

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, attracting debris.

Every time you open your photographic equipment to change film or batteries, examine the O-ring and service if necessary. Always clean and lubricate after every diving day. O-Ring grease makes a great Safe-a-Dive Kit Item and you should keep some in your camera bag or case.
