| Re: As Promised... Oring Sizes How about the two inside orings that are in a slidecheck? Those would be helpful. ![]()

| Re: As Promised... Oring Sizes Desert when you say a number is that Lowe's number 5 or is that the industry number 5? My hook up to the calipers fell through because the electronics of it are on the fritz. That's why this has been put on hold. |

| Re: As Promised... Oring Sizes Quote:
Thats the SAE size (industry size??), #5 O-ring, 3/8" O.D. x 1/4" I.D. x 1/16". I can possibly get access to a Digital caliper at work, I'm not sure if the flight line has them in the CTK but I know my back shop has them. If there is no special math involved (hydraulics = mechanical no technical math haha) I can help with this info. I for see a small problem tho, let me know if you have found a way around this. This is what happened I got some tank o-rings from my local paintball store and when I went to get the QD o-rings I picked up some orings that matched the Tank orings. Well I got home and tested one that I got from the paintball store and it worked great, but when I tried the one that I picked up from lowes it leaked. When I rubbed the two different orings through my fingers the orings I got from the paintball store were a lot more rigid than the ones I got from Lowes. This seems to have a small effect on the sealing surfaces, if the oring is made with to soft of rubber than it wont seal properly. Any ideas?? ~DesertWynd~ |

| Re: As Promised... Oring Sizes Yeah. The orings at Lowes normally aren't made out of Buna or Beuna... I'm not sure of the spelling. But it's a compound that is more hospitable to the paintball environment especially if you are using co2. |

| Re: As Promised... Oring Sizes I just bought o-rings for the R/T Stud at Lowe's and my system is working just fine. I got 10 of them for $1.36. Lowe's part # 198990 #60 1/4" OD x 1/8" ID x 1/16" I haven't played a game with it yet, but after running through a couple of hoppers, the system still works well. |
