Suppliers of rubber washers?

[Michael Kilpatrick]

This is really frustrating. I just can't believe I can't locate a straightforward supplier of miscellaneous rubber washers off the shelf!

All I want is a dozen washers about 15mm diameter, 1.5mm-2mm thick, with a 6mm hole. These are for remounting some electric fans. Can anyone please point me in the right direction?

thanks,

Michael

How about cutting some from an old bicycle tyre or similar?

Your local plumbers merchant should do the trick

[Simon Stroud]

Agreed.

Those 2 or 3 sizes of tap washer are brilliant for all kinds of jobs where a rubber washer is required, especially things like screwing toilets to the floor or cisterns/sinks to the wall. You can even make it look neat with a nice big brass countersunk screw and a "screw cup" washer.

Regards, Simon.
