Silicone O-Ring For Heating Element

Description

Silicone O-Ring for Heating Element — Dash 217 Replacement Seal

The genuine silicone O-ring for water distiller heating elements — a Dash 217 size silicone seal that creates a watertight gasket between the heating element and the boiling tank. Without a good O-ring, water leaks past the element and your distiller’s electrical components are at risk.

The clear/white silicone O-ring pictured is the standard replacement size — heat-resistant, food-safe, and designed to outlast harder rubber alternatives.

💧 Why Replace the O-Ring?

• Prevents water leaking past the heating element
• Protects electrical components from water damage
• Silicone is heat-resistant and longer-lasting than rubber
• Food-safe — appropriate for distilled water contact
• Dash 217 standard size for common distiller heating elements

🏠 Perfect For

⭐ Why Silicone Over Rubber

Rubber O-rings work, but they harden and crack from heat over time. Silicone stays flexible for years — making it the right choice for the heat-cycle environment inside a distiller boiling tank.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
