But your groove is only 1.4mm wide, are you sure this wasn't originally fitted with a lip seal or similar?So maybe a thicker o ring is required.

I think this could be the problem. A 1.5mm cross section o ring in a 1.55mm groove! So maybe a thicker o ring is required.
most are standard,Isn't it the case that quite a lot of O rings (by no means all) are specific sizes to the manufacturer / application? It discourages "un-authorised tampering" .
Unlikely I would have thought - so many standard ones available, there'll be something out there close enough to work, so not worth the bother.Isn't it the case that quite a lot of O rings (by no means all) are specific sizes to the manufacturer / application?
