Remove stuck O-rings and flange gaskets from freeze dryers, rotary evaporators, glove boxes, and industrial vacuum systems with the Indigo™ 22575 stainless steel O-ring removal tool. Extract hardened seals without damaging precision surfaces.

Industrial process equipment relies on flange gasket seals and O-rings to maintain vacuum integrity, prevent contamination, and contain process materials. Rubber flange gasket materials in freeze dryers, rotary evaporators, glove boxes, and industrial piping systems degrade from thermal cycling, chemical exposure, and compression forces, becoming hardened and bonded into grooves. The Indigo™ 22575 dual-ended O-ring removal tool provides industrial maintenance personnel with the precision needed to extract stuck seals from pipe flange gasket assemblies, vacuum chamber ports, and process equipment connections without damaging expensive precision-machined surfaces or leaving residue that compromises subsequent seal integrity.

Indigo™ dental tools are made with AISI 410 German surgical grade stainless steel, not "alloy steel" made from rusted cars. We've been selling dental tools on-line since 1998. Ours stay sharp longer & are autoclavable: see Documentation below that confirms chromium & manganese content.

What Makes the Indigo™ 22575 the Right Tool?

  • Dual-Tip Design for Different Access:
    Curved hook tip for open flange surfaces and accessible ports
    Angled tip reaches recessed O-rings inside equipment housings and tight pipe flanges
    Eliminates need for multiple specialized picks
  • Surface Protection:
    410-grade stainless steel is hard enough to extract compressed seals yet softer than hardened tool steel
    Won't gouge aluminum vacuum chambers, stainless steel process equipment, or glass components
    Polished finish reduces friction and surface marking
  • Complete Material Removal:
    Hardened O-ring fragments left in grooves cause vacuum leaks and contamination
    The tool's tip geometry hooks under degraded elastomer for complete extraction
    Critical for maintaining vacuum integrity in freeze dryers and glove boxes
  • Cost Savings:
    Prevents damage to expensive equipment: freeze dryer chambers ($5,000-50,000), rotary evaporator glassware ($500-2,000), glove box ports ($1,000-5,000)
    Preserves precision-machined seal grooves that are impossible to repair in the field
    Extends equipment life by enabling proper seal replacement without component damage

The Indigo™ 22575 O-ring removal tool addresses seal extraction challenges across industrial process equipment where precision surface protection and complete material removal are critical. From freeze dryer chamber seals to rotary evaporator glass joints, glove box ports to industrial pipe flange gasket assemblies, this dual-tip tool prevents the equipment damage and vacuum leaks that result from improper seal removal techniques.

What Do Our Customers Say?

  • Kelli Cote: Great quality products at a very reasonable price! Purchased some dental picks for my daughter's University paleontology club to help with their fossil preparation lab.
  • Sandra Mead: I bought several stainless steel picks, scrapers and spatulas for art and mechanical work. They're great! They are strong,sharp and hold their shape; not like the ones you get on Amazon or at home depot. Finally a good product at a good price. I'm telling all my friends about this site. Thanks Indigo.
