Coolhead orings


Recommended Posts

The longest one that seals the two halves has 1/2"  "inch worm" when put in the groove.  Any ideas?  I could cut and superglue it, but I think this would make a hard spot that may leak.

 

Also, I have one loner that is 2 1/2" in diameter? 

 

Chariot racing brand o-rings.  First time with this, I hope I don't have to order new ones without even using these.  CAN ANYTHING GO RIGHT WITH THIS BUILD!!!??????

 

Thanks for the help!

Yes on extras.  When putting orings in grooves do not use silicone because it does not allow for oring squish and the oring will fail guaranteed.  Use grease to hold orings in place.  If you SLIDE your finger along the oring as fitting it in the groove then it will stretch and be too big to fit.  Move your finger up and down as you put the oring in the groove.
