02GF74 - 10/12/10 at 10:16 AM

after two sizes of o-rings:

1. 25 mm ID x 1 mm cross section
2. 5 mm ID x 1 mm cross section

where can I get these cheap (cheapest so far is 1.18!! eeek!!)

I recently bought a box of 200 in various sizes from my local 'Range' store - they cost £3!

5 of each would be enough.

not sure what a local "range" store is

They sell all kinds of cheap tacky stuff but their tools section is quite useful on a Sunday afternoon - mixed nuts & bolts, circlips, o rings etc

Sound like £10!

Depending on where they are for quality would be as much a concern as price for me, maybe try asking for some samples?

25 x 1 is a bit of an odd size, what material do you need them in? ie what are you using them for?

is that £1.18 each?!

simply bearings has 25mm i.d 1mm cross section o rings for £1.50+vat for 2, its a bit cheapers i guess... maybe thats the going rate these days...

Local plumbers merchants will carry a range of O rings


02GF74 - 13/12/10 at 05:14 PM

it is 24 x 1.

that one is for XTR hollowtech chainset

the 5 mm x 1 is for bleed screw for Avid Elixir brakes (hydraulic brakes for a mtb) - it is had to say what the cross section really is as the o-ring is mullered but it vould be 0.5 mm .
