Gasket – Silicone E61 Group Head

Gasket – Silicone E61 Group Head..

Servicing your own E61 group head is quick and easy.

Over time this gasket will start to become brittle and water will leak over the top of your portafilter when you are pulling a shot.

These soft silicone rubber group seals are ideal for upgrading the black rubber seals within the standard machine. They provide a much longer useful life (though it’s still a good idea to change them approximately annually) and remain soft and pliable throughout their lifetime – resulting in a positive and progressive locking in of the portafilter.

As these group gaskets do not become firm over months and years of use, they are significantly easier to remove for cleaning, maintenance or replacement than standard black rubber ones.

At the same time you may also need to replace the group head screen as well with a stock standard E61 Group Head Screen, or you can try one of our IMS Precision Screens – E61 200 IM Competiton Series
