Lever Group Portafilter O-ring

Lever Group Portafilter O-Ring (OR 06225)

EPDM rubber sealing o-ring for the classic Gino Rossi "Leva" AL67 lever group, used by numerous manufacturers who licensed or copied this group design rather than engineering their own. This is the original round-profile o-ring; most manufacturers now recommend upgrading to the flat-profile version, which seals against a larger surface area.

SPECIFICATIONS

• Standard: OR 06225, EPDM rubber
• Outside diameter: 67 mm
• Inside diameter: 56.52 mm
• Thickness: 5.34 mm

COMPATIBILITY

• Fits: AL67 lever groups on Astoria, Bezzera, Brasilia, Faema, La Pavoni, Nuova Simonelli, Wega, and Victoria Arduino Athena models manufactured before 01/17/2012
• Does NOT fit: Victoria Arduino Athena models built after 01/17/2012, which switched to a square gasket not currently carried by Espresso Parts
• Verify against your machine's parts diagram before ordering, since specs can vary slightly between manufacturers using this shared design

INSTALLATION

Simple DIY replacement during routine group head service.

PRO TIPS

• If you're overhauling the group anyway, install the flat-profile gasket instead of this round o-ring, it's the version manufacturers now recommend because it seals more reliably over time.
• Double check your Athena's build date if it's a Victoria Arduino, post 01/17/2012 units use a different square-profile gasket that this o-ring will not seal correctly.
