Anyone have ideas where......

I can find "flat" o-rings for a drip tip. I have some that fit diameter wise, but the they are too "fat" for the o-ring groove. Of course it's one of my favorite tips.   The drip tip is one of these titanium tips.

If you have some old coils hanging around you can try the o-rings from them, that's what I use. or maybe you might have some old drip tips you don't use.

Some hardware stores carry o-rings

+1 on the hardware store!  I picked up a bag of 25 o-rings which were the perfect size for most of my drip-tips from the local True-Value.  Actually, they fit all of them, but some are a bit more snug, some a bit loose, but the majority fit perfectly.

@FXRich A good idea on the o-rings from old coils.  The coils for my Subtank Minis (the ones at the top of the threads) look very close to the correct size, when compared side-by-side to the ones taken off the Subtank drip-tips.

I guess I need to figure out what size they really are.  I am sure they are metric.  I sell o-rings as part of my job, in fact I sold $2500 of them of a special EPDM that is peroxide cured today.

What material do y'all think they should be made of?  Most of ours are just plain old Buna-Nitrile 70 duro.  I don't stock very many metric and the ones I do are all way too big.

I really don't know what the best material would be, Buna is the cheapest and chemically compatible, but Silicone would probably be better.
