Description

They are made by the same Italian OEM manufacturer that makes them for Marzocco, but these have no company logo on them.Gasket Dimensions 72 X 55 X 7.1/9 mm. This is 1mm THICKER than the normal gasket which is installed on new machines. This gasket is sometimes used on machines that have some wear on the metal group head and portafilter holder flanges. (In the picture 2 are shown face up and 2 gace down.) Filter holder gaskets normally last for 6 - 12 months, depending on usage. It is always best to keep a spare on hand. Replace when the rubber hardens, or if water leaks from this location. A hardened rubber gasket results in more force necessary to make the seal. This creates unnecessary wear on the metal group head and portafilter bayonets.  If you have a really stuck group gasket, you can screw a drywall screw into the old gasket, and then pull it out with a pliers. Center the screw when inserting into the gasket edge. Don't tap in too far - just deep enough to reach the end of the thickness of the gasket.  FAST SHIPPING!
