Small O Rings

[GothicLord]

Does anyone know of anywhere that sells tiny O rings for drip tips?? as I am looking to get a couple of slightly thicker ones, so my drip tips fit a little tighter on my mini nova & cartos.

They are all 510 drip tips, but the 4 I have so far all seem to be slightly different sizes, 1 fits my mini nova well enough to vape with but came off in my pocket earlier, 2 are too loose to even use to vape, and only the horrible plastic one I got with the mini nova fits tightly (1 is even loose in my innokin cartos).

Think is more the depth of the Vivi head that's the problem,if you look at the tip they supply its a lot longer to fit in and has a much wider o ring/seal,so even with a bigger one you will probably still wobble about with a lot of drip tips

Pound shops sell a big bag of mixed O rings for..... a pound

And as they dont come into contact with eliquid, they dont have to be food grade.

pound shop sounds good, I'll get the mother in law on the case for that one, she's always in and out of them

As for not being in direct contact with juice, I know this for the mini nova, but isn't there a chance they could be in contact on cartos??

my ce4 that you screw into the top comes into contact with juice but the mini nova yiou unscrew without removing the tip so no juices around them at all

The question was about O-rings for the nova, so non food grade will be fine. Providing they are not chopped and changed with cartos or dripping atties.

The OP asked about o-rings drip tips for nova & cartos, no probs Kev, I had never even thought of food grade for o-rings, glad it was brought up as I need to hunt down an o-ring for a drip tip that may be used on lots of devices, personally I wouldn't like to have to try to remember which had food grade o-rings and which didn't, because I would lose track

Not at all mate.

Was only pointing out that he wanted o-rings for a specific task, as the drip tip is loose.

Poundshop ones will be fine for that purpose, even though they are probaly not food grade, but might be.

If not, then pointing out not to mix and match with other devices.

better safe than sorry mate

I am mainly wanting to use my fave drip tip on everything I have, at the moment it is loose on the innokin cartos, and unusable on the mini nova as it is.

I have used PFTE thread tape on the drip tip with success on the nova, but the tape snags on the cartos. The other issue is that I have to change the tape every time I clean the mini nova, which 1st thing in the morning is a pain.

I would assume that if the O rings are food safe they would say so on the bag??

The annoying thing here is that the size difference between the drip tip and the nova is about 0.25mm - 0.5mm at most, but that obviously makes all the difference
