WTB: O-rings for garden hose fittings?

Oct 03, 2005 1 Replies

Hi Folks, Anyone got a source for those black rubber "O" ring washers that fit neatly on garden hose fittings? Some of these have perished on my outdoor fittings. Others have been spirited away (probably by my kids when they fill balloons with water at the outside tap and then roll the balloon neck AND the O-ring off the tap in one operation). I've tried using some spare O-rings that I had lying around my garage, but they are too thick and hence you cannot get the plug to mate with the socket - aaargh.



So anyone got a source, or failing that an exact specification of the rings that I need (as in Diameter and Thickness)?



Thanks in advance

Garden centres have; recall Hozelock do small packets of them, or try a Builders/Plumbers Merchants; may have loose.
