Our stock record lists it only as O-RING, with no size or position, so the safest way to order is by part number. Find 754132381 in the parts list for your Smeg model, or ask us to check it for you before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLeaks caused by a worn O-ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eO-rings are small but they hold back pressure. They're squeezed in their groove when the two parts are assembled, and that compression forms the seal. With age, heat and detergent the rubber flattens, hardens or cracks, and it stops springing back. The result is usually a slow drip or weep from a joint, a damp patch under the appliance, or a component that loses pressure. O-rings can also be nicked or twisted when parts are taken apart, which is why it pays to fit a new one whenever a sealed joint has been opened. The correct size matters, as a near enough ring will often leak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Smeg part 754132381\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRubber O-ring seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize and position not on file, order by part number\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFit a new O-ring whenever the joint is opened\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting a new O-ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIsolate the appliance at the wall and turn off the water before opening any joint. Remove the old O-ring with a plastic pick so you don't scratch the groove, then clean out any scale or grit. Lightly wet the new ring with water or a smear of silicone grease suited to rubber, seat it evenly without twisting and reassemble. Check for leaks on the first run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich appliance and position is this O-ring for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur record doesn't say.
