Gents,

Ive been in contact with orings and things regarding a cheap, buy in bulk option for an oring replacement set. I need some info if anyone has it:

I sent them the screenshot of the o-ring list.
Message from the person that works there:
"If I had samples of the other parts I may be able to match them, but based off of the list I was provided, the descriptions are too vague. I need types, dimensions, possibly pictures? To determine the best compound I need the specs on Psi rating,temperature, fluid and movement against the seal (ex. Rotating or reciprocating"

Can someone help out with this info?

Also, they stated that they couldn't find all the o rings from the list.

Thank you.

Willy.

 
Please see attached a quote. Can someone take a look and let me know if anything is missing?

I can't believe its worth the effort to hunt around for these seals when you can get a FX Impact O-Ring Seal Kit on Amazon, Ebay or other sites and get the latest spec seals.

Figure in all your time hunting around, minimum purchase orders etc etc

You can get a kit for $38.

If you value your time at $25 per hour then find the right seals, then pay shipping etc etc.

Go buy a kit!

Ok, so the kit is $38 USD for ~ 1 of each o-ring (rip off). I am helping the community by getting a package which contains 5-10 orings of each type for $15 USD without searching for the individual o-rings, and you call that a waste of time?

Nice.

I would not trust amazon to sell true FX o rings. Have bought an item that turned out to be made in china marked, painted and labeled to imitate american made ratcheting cable puller. It failed under a much lesser load then "rated". Reading customer ratings I noticed that persons are importing items made in china imitating high quality items in general and actually being of lessor quality. Be careful. Buyer beware. GBGUNNER
