O Rings

[dafellon]

How do I size what gauge/ diameter O rings I need for any device?

Are there any blanket rules like get a size smaller than what your working with....

Would I be attempting to size the indent where the O ring goes, if so how?

Inner/ outer diameter or wahht???

I've seen o rings advertised with inside diameter, outside diameter and thickness, so you will need at least to measure from the bottom of the groove (thinnest part) from 1 side to the other and the height of the groove will give the thickness of o ring needed. So you will need some king of callipers or a digital vernier to measure them.

Tell us what you want the o-rings for, someone might know the size that you need. Other than that the guy that runs stealthvape seems to have a good understanding of what o-rings certain kit use.

Off the top of my head I need them for the 'Cigreen X' & 'Hobo' RDA's and want a different colour for the SMOK 'VCT'.

But in all honesty I just wanna change what I want when I want.

you could also try Ash myepack for the information that you require.

Anybody know what size o-ring I need for a Taifun GTII atty sleeve? I have seen it shown as 11mm x 1mm ( www.whitefog.co.uk/en/taifun/685-taifun-gt-ii-o-ring-set.html ..oos) but don't know if that is internal or external diameter.

Where would be best to buy them too?

Simply Bearings do nearly ever size known to man, and good service but pricey. But for obscure sizes, none better I know of.

Thanks sydsut, but at those prices, I can buy another clone!!!!! Now if it was genuine, I'd be tempted.

Ordered a selection from Slowtech.
