Micro Seiki RX-1500 Gasket
These guys in Germany list them as a future product at the bottom of the page, but when they posted that info on the site is a guess, so you may want to /contact ask them , if an when. Most sellers in Japan when available ask absurd prices for a used set. Last ones were in US dollars in the thousands................ http://www.my-micro.de/my-micro_produkte_e.htm |
The German group got back to me and mentioned there is a huge interest in replacement gaskets but the tooling cost is so high, that they cannot proceed with having any made. However, I did find a potential alternate product. I found a window gasket at Home Depot and it is very soft, self adhesive, and white. I think this will work so I will see if I can install it today and report back here. |

is a bit late as I have gone through a lot of gaskets since I wrote the above response in February last year. I eventually found that two gaskets at Home Depot work pretty well. Not perfect but pretty well. These are made by MD, called Rubber Window Seal, and you will need the XSmall one, P/N 02592. It is 1/8" tall and 3/8" wide and I use it as the center gasket. This one has vertical ridges on it, which is its short coming. It if was an oval, it would probably be perfect. The other gasket is also an MD Rubber Window Seal, and you will need the Medium size. P/N is 63602, it is oval, 1/4" tall and 5/16" wide. This one works quite well, if you have trouble getting a good vacuum seal, it is due to the center gasket. Hope this helps you guys! |
