Brass O-Ring pick

Morning, I wanted to pass on a tool that helps a lot when changing O-Rings. Its handy to have a set of brass O-Rng picks in your tool box. The good ones are made out of pretty soft brass and won’t damage the O-Ring, scratch the O-Ring grooves or other surfaces. I have been on several jobs where we have to take something back apart when someone has damaged a O-Ring by using a Stainless pick or a screwdriver to push a ring into place. There is also some picks made out of nylon that some guys like but I have preferred the brass ones like in this link. I don’t know anything about the link that shows the picks. If we ask our material guy to get us some we call them Parker O-Ring picks. https://www.freshwatersystems.com/p-12880-brass-o-ring-installation-and-extraction-tool-kit.aspx?utm_source=Googlebase&utm_medium=Feed&utm_campaign=Product&utm_term=OR-INS/EXT&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIoPeEgarJ2wIV1TaBCh1aXA-QEAQYAyABEgKAyPD_BwE
