pcp gauge seal - Where to buy in the U.S. ?

[30harry]

Anyone know where you can purchase these in the U.S. ? And, no, they aren't mints.

They are "O rings/gaskets" used to seal a PCP gauge for instance. They are used in the newer Kral punchers to seal the gauge. It is Kral part number AT 26 and Kral calls it a manometer O Ring but it isn't actually an o ring. It's a flat "plastic" ? disc that goes in the bottom of the gauge hole and the gauge screws down against it to seal the gauge.

I can order from the far east, but they use a small row boat to deliver them.

I just bought some faucet gaskets from Ace Hardware that might work for what you need.

If the diameter is too big you can take a metal pipe that has the diameter you need and press fit the seal with it. Good luck

They’ve got smaller ones too

Call Airguns of Arizona, Airgun Depot or Pyramid Air.

They appear to be the same thing that goes in a male quick connect fitting. That will help broaden your search.

I use Dowty seals and get them from an ebay seller if I'm not ordering from AoA or the UK. I have never used those, but I see them on ebay often as well.

Edit: Crap. I'm sorry. I didn't see that you aren't using them for the female fitting. The Dowty part probably doesn't apply to your situation. I have seen them often on ebay. The ones I have seen in the past on Amazon were a bit overpriced IMO.

Check the faucet and plumbing department and misc self serve loose hardware section at your local ACE Hardware.

could try a nylon washer from hardware store, nut and bolt aisle

I think I have a couple of different sizes of those "donuts". What is the OD and thickness? If they are the right size, can have them for the shipping.



One is 7mm OD and the other is 8.7mm OD. Both are 3mm thick.

FWIW: They came on that slow boat you spoke off, but for the gauge I was working with, the dowdy seal was the correct item I needed.

I have a lot of faucet washers. I might just try one but I don't think they were made to handle over 3,000psi.

Also the nylon washer might be a good one. I'll have to check ace tomorrow.

That's the thing I'm looking for but I can't find anyone in the U.S. that stocks them by themselves. I'll give PA a call tomorrow.

They need to be 10mm or very close. Thanks for the offer.

They were for M8 and M10 gauges.

Thanks for the offer. After thinking about the picture @Vetmx put on here, I went looking through my pump spare parts and found that a kit to repair a pcp pump that I had actually had two of those in the kit. Now I'm back in business. I'm still going to call PA and see if they have a few more for spares. I like that setup a lot better than using an oring in there.

thanks again.
