When should I choose the heavy-duty 9 mm?

When the group seat is deep from wear and a common gasket no longer closes well. The heavy-duty 9 mm recovers the tightening and the handle angle.

How is it different from the 8 mm?

It is 1 mm thicker and more robust. The 8 mm is the usual size; the 9 mm is for worn seats that need more height.

Which brands is it for?

It is for E61-based groups — Faema, Wega, VBM, Gaggia and Expobar, among others. Confirm the sizes on the gasket you are replacing.

Is it safe for food contact?

Yes. It is NBR at 85 Shore A with FDA approval, resistant to heat and pressure and suitable for contact with coffee.
