322-1926/1: Single 19/26 Sealing Cap PTFE Face (Pack of 1)
322-2429: Sealing Cap with PTFE Face 24/29 (Pack of 10)

322-2932/1: Single 29/32 Sealing Cap PTFE Face (Pack of 1)
322-3435: Sealing Cap with PTFE Face 34/35 (Pack of 10)

The grey seals (PTFE faces) are not available separately.

However, for optimal performance, we would advise that glass cone stoppers are used instead to seal unused lid ports instead, particularly when working with vacuum, or very corrosive chemicals. Glass cone stoppers do not have a seal/face that could come out, give great sealing, and have excellent chemical resistance.

RR139027: Glass Cone Stopper B19 (Pack of 1)
RR139029: Glass Cone Stopper B24 (Pack of 1)
RR139031: Glass Cone Stopper B29 (Pack of 1)
RR139033: Glass Cone Stopper B34 (Pack of 1)
RR139378: Glass Cone Stopper B45 (Pack of 1)

Glass cone stoppers are also available in US 'A' joints.
