The CRAFTY Seal Ring Set is an official Storz & Bickel replacement kit that keeps your CRAFTY vaporizer airtight, leak-free, and performing the way it did on day one. Eleven O-rings in four sizes cover every seal point on the device — mouthpiece, filling chamber, and base — so you can swap out worn rubber in one go rather than hunting for individual parts.
Each set contains exactly 11 seal rings across 4 types, covering every O-ring position on the CRAFTY vaporizer. Here's the breakdown straight from the box:
| Seal Ring Type | Quantity | Location on Device |
|---|---|---|
| Mouthpiece Seal Ring | 3 | Cooling unit / mouthpiece connection |
| Filling Chamber Seal Ring | 2 | Herb chamber interface |
| Base Seal Ring, small | 3 | Lower housing (small groove) |
| Base Seal Ring, large | 3 | Lower housing (large groove) |
That's 3 mouthpiece rings, 2 filling chamber rings, 3 small base rings, and 3 large base rings. Some positions only need 1 ring at a time, so you're getting spares for future swaps — one purchase covers multiple maintenance sessions.

Complete your CRAFTY maintenance kit: pair these seal rings with the CRAFTY Wear & Tear Set for a full refresh, or grab a set of Storz & Bickel Dosing Capsules to keep your filling chamber cleaner for longer between deep cleans. If you're running through screens too, the CRAFTY Replacement Screen Set covers that side of things.
O-rings are the unsung workhorses of any portable vaporizer. They sit between heated metal and plastic components, expanding and contracting with every session, absorbing residue from vapour, and gradually losing their elasticity. On the CRAFTY, there are seal points at the mouthpiece, the filling chamber, and the base — and when any one of those rings goes slack, you'll notice.
The first sign is usually a drop in vapour density. Air leaks around a worn seal mean you're pulling ambient air alongside your vapour, diluting flavour and reducing the visible cloud. The second sign is a faint hissing or whistling sound during a draw. The third — and this is the one that catches people off guard — is a loose-feeling cooling unit that wobbles or pops off more easily than it used to. We've had customers come in thinking their CRAFTY was broken when all it needed was a 5-minute O-ring swap.
The honest limitation here: these are small rubber rings, and they don't last forever no matter what you do. Heat, isopropyl alcohol cleaning, and simple age all degrade silicone over time. If you're a daily user, expect to replace your seal rings roughly every 3-6 months. Light users can stretch that to 8-12 months. The good news is that this set gives you spares, so one purchase typically covers 6-12 months of maintenance even for heavy users.
We've sold Storz & Bickel products since they first hit the market, and one thing we've noticed over the years: third-party O-rings almost always disappoint. They look identical — same colour, roughly the same diameter — but the silicone compound is softer, and they compress unevenly after a few heat cycles. Within 4-6 weeks you're back to air leaks. The OEM rings from this set are manufactured to Storz & Bickel's tolerances in Tuttlingen, Germany, and the difference is noticeable in how snugly the cooling unit locks into place. It's a small thing, but it's the kind of small thing that separates a good session from a mediocre one.
One thing worth knowing: the CRAFTY and CRAFTY+ use different seal ring sets. This particular set (VS0117) is for the original CRAFTY. If you've got the newer CRAFTY+ with the USB-C charging port and the updated app interface, double-check which model you're running before you order. The rings look similar but the diameters differ by fractions of a millimetre — enough to matter.
This set (VS0117) is designed for the original CRAFTY. The CRAFTY+ uses slightly different ring dimensions. Check your model number on the base of the device — if it says "CRAFTY" without the plus sign, this is the right set.
Daily users should swap them every 3-6 months. If you vape a few times a week, you can stretch that to 8-12 months. Replace sooner if you notice reduced vapour density, air leaks, or a loose-feeling cooling unit.
You can clean them with isopropyl alcohol to remove residue, but cleaning won't restore lost elasticity. Once a ring has gone slack or developed a flat spot from compression, no amount of cleaning brings it back. At this price point, fresh rings are the way to go.
No special tools required. A wooden toothpick helps prise out stubborn old rings, and a cotton bud with isopropyl alcohol cleans the grooves. The whole job takes under 5 minutes.
Roll the ring into the groove rather than stretching it over. Check that it sits flat with no twists — run your fingertip around the full circumference. A twisted ring creates a gap that leaks air. Do a dry draw after reassembly to confirm the seal is tight.
No, the CRAFTY has a built-in lithium-ion battery that isn't user-replaceable. Storz & Bickel offers a repair service for battery issues. Seal rings, screens, and cooling units are the user-serviceable parts.
Absolutely. Dosing capsules hold 0.15-0.2g of ground herb and keep the filling chamber much cleaner, which means your seal rings and screens last longer too. They're one of the best accessories for reducing maintenance frequency.
