O-ring (2), hinge, QPAC

Elastomer O-ring designed for the hinge pivots of QPAC instruments. Manufactured by QIAGEN, this sealing component is fitted to maintain smooth hinge motion and to exclude dust and fluids from the hinge assembly. When the original seal becomes worn or compressed, replacement restores proper hinge performance.

Before fitting, the seat surfaces should be inspected, and a manufacturer-approved lubricant may be applied if required. The component belongs to the QIAGEN Assay Technologies portfolio within the Instrumentation budget line.
