Cafelat E61 Silicone Filterholder Gasket 8.0mm (Red)

Unlike regular gaskets, that are made from rubber, these do not have any smell or taste whatsoever, and are easy to change as they will not bake rock hard like rubber.

Replica E61 groups made these days are pretty much all the same, the different machine manufacturers then use either an 8mm or an 8.5mm group gasket.

Suitable for following machines:
All E61 Modern Replica groups such as: Isomac, ECM, ECM Manufacture, QuickMill, Rocket, MyWay, BFC, VBM etc…But you need to know which thickness you require i.e. 8mm or 8.5mm since machine manufacturers choose their own thickness.

What is the difference between 8mm and 8.5mm?
The thickness of the gasket will determine the “lock-in” position of the portafilter handle. Ideally you want the handle to lock in directly towards you (6 o’clock position). If the gasket is too thin it will lock in too far. If the gasket is too thick it will not lock in enough.
