COMPATIBILITY & APPLICATIONS
Designed for Flowmax Heavy Duty Housings
This O-ring is engineered specifically for Watts Flowmax Heavy Duty filter housings used in commercial water filtration systems. The Buna-N material offers excellent resistance to water, oils, and common filtration chemicals, making it suitable for municipal water, well water, and light commercial applications. Replace your housing O-ring during routine filter changes or whenever you notice reduced seal performance to maintain system pressure and prevent bypass.
💧 Replace your housing O-ring every 12-24 months or whenever you see visible wear, cracking, or compression set. A light coating of food-grade silicone grease during installation extends seal life and makes future housing openings easier.
