O Ring Needed
SALAD - 15/10/13 at 06:20 PM

Does anyone have a 53mm ID O ring that they could post me for sensible money? 53mm ID no more than 60mm OD and about 2mm thick.

I would happily buy an assorted box of them but I can't get confirmation that they contain a 53mm and the contents lists I can find don't go up to 53mm.
Buying them individually (or small quantities) is silly money.

It is for the new thermostat housing on my XE as it didn't come with one.

I have a selection box in the workshop, if you can wait until I'm up there on saturday I'm happy to stick one in the post FOC

Unfortunately not Wasa as it needs to fit in a groove.

Happy to wait Mr Belly if you have the right one, that would be brilliant.

bearingboys.co.uk have O rings by ID in metric and imperial sizes. You may have to buy a pack of 10 though

Link for 53mm ID, 2.5mm thick - filtered link

Admittedly silly money though for your 53mm

60mmm od 3.5mm thick making it 53 id.

A little chunkier than you wanted though.

How about this

C20XE Thermostat O Ring

For £1.75 + whatever the P&P is.

Sorry Wasa, I didn't realise it was OD as it doesn't say. 3.5mm might be Ok, I will have to measure up but wouldn't the ID of that one be 56.5mm?

QED have a minimum £5 order so a bit much if I'm not ordering anything else.

If you could have a look Daddylonglegs then that would be great, just in case Mr Belly doesn't have the correct size.

Otherwise I'll try the one Wasa posted. Thanks all.

If you Google there part number other firms give it as the od.

I work the id out to be 53mm.

Worth a punt at a couple of quid

SALAD - 16/10/13 at 04:24 PM

Indeed, I've bought one.
Should be here before the weekend so we'll see if it fits.

SALAD - 19/10/13 at 11:46 AM

Nope....it is 60mm ID.

lsdweb - 19/10/13 at 12:15 PM

I've got a box full but without the size labels. I have some that look to be about 52mm.

Send me your address and I'll stick it in the post if you want.

just had a look, biggest in the box is R-32 which is 50mm I/D X 3.5mm, any good?

SALAD - 19/10/13 at 04:24 PM

I don't think 50mm will do it, as it has to sit in a groove, but thanks for looking.

I have U2U'd you Wyn.
