Perlick o-rings

[jtrainer]

Does anyone know what size O-Rings are used on the Perlick 425 faucets?

Mine developed a small occasional drip, so far I've been told to replace the O-rings to correct the old unit...

thanks,

I could have sworn I had this somewhere. But I can't seem to find it. I am interested in it as well.

OK let me ask this... are the same o-rings used in a Perlick 525 as are in a 425?

 

[jtrainer]

OK a call to Perlick (duh should have done that second) and I learned:

425 faucets use 3 O-Rings 1/2" ID and 1/16 CS (Cross Section)
525 faucets us 2 O-Rings 1/2" ID and 1/16 CS (Cross Section) AND (line disconnected)

Hope this helps someone else...

So all of the O-Rings are the same then? Based on those specs it would seem that McMaster #9452K58 should fit the bill. Right?

Eric I think so. I'm going up to my local Tru-Value later to look for them.

For the 425 yes all three are the same unit, it's the 525's that have 2 different O-Rings.

I also realize I forgot to put the composition material is... N-7044

Material: O-Ring Composition N-7044 : 70 durometer nitrile, internally lubed with RTD's proprietary organic lubricant
Compound Details: N-7044 70 durometer nitrile, internally lubed with RTD's proprietary organic lubricant
Status: Non-Stock Compound
Colors:
Durometers:
Flags: FDA Internally Lubed
Essentially Buna-N available at bLowes or Dome Hepot or Ace or name it...

O-Ring composition compatible with Beer!

Interesting. It would seem like Buna-N or a bunch of other things would work fine. ... FYI size is Dash Number 014.

and since my faucet sprung another leak this time at the shaft seal... I called Perlick and received the following size information:

Perlick 424SS

Shaft O-Ring: Dash 202
ID 1/4" (.234")
CS 1/8" (.139")

Shaft O-Ring: Dash 202

Does anyone know the size for a Perlick 525 internal O-Ring?

Dash 202 is too small. Anyone needs some for there 425 faucets?

Perlick lists "O"-RING F/SANITARY FAUCET 1/2"ID X 1/16"CS COMP. N7044 as one of the two replacement o-rings but you have to spend $25 dollars to order from them how dumb.

Add part 425-8 to your cart to get the size listed (in the cart).

Maybe lowes or HD carries something close enough?

What about the "seat" o-ring (part #3 here)? Does anyone have the dimensions or Mcmaster-Carr part number for that o-ring? I'm planning on making a bulk o-ring purchase but I haven't had any luck finding the dimensions of that particular o-ring.

The o-rings are the same on the 400 & 500 series!!

The o-rings are the same on the 400 & 500 series!!

The O-rings on either side of the faucet lever pivot are the same, but the O-ring at the spout end of a 525 is not the same as the O-ring at the plunger on the 425.

ie: While #5 equals #4, #8 does not equal #8...

Cheers!

 

[Brewerforlife]

Well said dude!!! lol

 

[MichaelBrock]

@Brewerforlife: was that an answer to my question about the dimensions or McMaster-Carr part number for the seat o-ring? If so, I don't see that information in the images. Looks like Perlick part numbers.

 

[Brewerforlife]

Your right. I'll find out!! So your looking for the smaller front lever o-rings. I'm gonna be ordering out of my catalog soon!!! How many do you need!! I can hook you up!! pm me if your interested?? Cheers!!!

I have had great luck with a guy from Selkirk, NY that I found on eBay. I got full sets of O-rings for my Perlick 545PC faucets. You can do the paypal thing direct to him. He's fast and cheap. Also does Corny keg O-rings. Go find "anthonysauctions2" on eBay. He's top notch

 

[StoneHands]

This wasn't what was asked, but I bought a couple of these to have on hand. They work well and don't anticipate having to rebuild that often.

Reviving an old one. Just got some 425's, can anyone validate these are the proper orings from mcmaster?

Since this is the first Google result when searching for Perlick o-ring sizes, I thought I'd toss this out for posterity.

For Perlick 525SS:

Lever o-rings are dash 014, McMaster # 9452K58
Front seal o-rings are dash 204, McMaster # 9452K338

I just reassembled all my 525SS's with these and, at between 10 and 14 PSI, no leaks. The dash 204's do appear smaller than the ones I took out, but the old ones could have been squashed as they were in service for 4 years.

HTH's someone!
