O ring measure

Go on to the website of any online water filter store. They all sell o-rings. Most of the time, when you order a single o-ring by size you get a bag of assorted o-rings. In the bag will be an o-ring that will fit your water filter. It is just as cheap to buy the o-ring "kits" as it is to buy a single o-ring and then you can give the rest of the bag to someone who uses a different brand filter than you. I currently have 5 or 6 unopened bags of o-rings in my garage. This way I have o-rings for my well filters and my trailer filters.

X2, and McMaster Carr has all this info. Measure the old one with calipers.

all the work, but you need a good measurement of the thickness. And a good supplier.

Real hardware stores are not as common as the Big Box Stores and Chain Stores.
Fortunately they usually have what you need.

1. The size of a used o-ring will be different than a new one.
2. I just take the assembly to the store and test fit.

I have always just taken in my old o-ring to Home Depot and found a perfect match...
But, these guys have every 0-ring under the sun listed by filter name and manufacturer....

O-Rings>>>HERE

Smaller may stretch, but then it might be too thin to seal properly. The O-ring should have its size listed: OD, ID, and/or thickness. IOW you might find ID and thickness, or OD and thickness.

The size is usually the inside diameter.
