Suppliers of rubber washers?

Question

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

Your local plumbers merchant should do the trick

Simon Stroud · Answer

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