ersatzteilshop basics Fissler-Fit Sealing Ring 573-3866700205

Check the number twice

This listing publishes two different pot sizes: 22 cm (8.7 in) internal diameter in its title, 26 cm (10.2 in) in its specification text.

On most products that would be a typing error worth a footnote. On the sealing ring of a pressure vessel it is the specification, and there is no manual here to arbitrate.

What to do instead

Two checks, neither of which takes long:

1. Measure the internal diameter of your own pot — the seller states plainly that the size in the listing is not the rubber ring’s own diameter, which is the source of most wrong orders in this category;
2. read the number molded inside the ring currently fitted. Fissler prints its article number there, and it is the only reference that cannot be misread.

What it is

Heat-resistant silicone, stated for long service, for Fissler pressure cookers of the Blue Point, Magic, Vitavit Royal and Vitaquick ranges up to 2009.

The interval

The seller publishes it: every two to three years. Fissler publishes the same figure for its own ring. That is the useful thing to take from this whole hub — a cooker that will not hold pressure is usually a part, not a fault.

Original or not

We state the distinction and leave the choice. Pressure equipment is one of the few places on this site where “cheaper equivalent” deserves a second thought, and where the manufacturer’s own part has an argument beyond the badge.

Buying it in the United States

This ring is sold on the European Amazon stores and not on Amazon.com, so the button on this page runs a search instead. For a Fissler vitaquick or vitavit cooker, the original Fissler sealing ring, 8.7 in (22 cm), is listed on Amazon.com. Neither ring fits an electric multi-cooker: an Instant Pot, a Cosori or a Midea takes its own maker’s ring.
