The Serpent SER110317 O-ring 6x1 arrives as a ten-piece pack intended for model servicing and small repairs. Provided in sets of 10 pcs, these rings are suited to Serpent kits and a wide range of RC car parts that require compact sealing rings sized to 6x1.
These small rubber rings are used primarily for three functions: preventing grease or fluids escaping gearboxes and diffs, acting as thin spacers or preload elements between moving parts, and offering modest vibration isolation for sensitive components. The 6x1 label identifies the family size and should be matched to the groove or shaft where it will be fitted.
Installation is straightforward if you work cleanly: check the groove and mating surfaces for burrs, clean out old lubricant and debris, apply a light smear of suitable grease to help the ring seat, avoid excessive stretching or twisting during fitting, and ensure the ring sits evenly. Discard rings that show deformation, cuts, or hardening rather than reusing them in critical spots.
For storage, avoid strong solvents and sunlight, keep the pack in a cool dry area, and use older stock first. Having a spare pack on hand makes routine maintenance quicker at the bench or track.
