Mighty Favog Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Hey ya'll! Does anyone have a pair of mid/horn gaskets for the k55?? I thought I had mine plenty tight but after a nice concert level session with the HIP's I hear a light rattle. I should have known better to order em' from Bob when I ordered the caps. 🤕 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjptkd Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Maybe the hardware store? They look very much like garden hose gaskets to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea because that's pretty much the same thing right? A rubber gasket is just that, nothing special as long as it fits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure they're high end custom jobs any slight deviation will ruin everything. Obviously first choice is Crites I was just offering an alternative solution take it or leave it.

jjptkd Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Alright the home depot idea wasn't the greatest, I actually had to go there yesterday anyway and thought I'd check out what they have and didn't find anything. I did however measure up the gaskets I have on hand from Crites and they are 1-1/4" OD and 3/4" ID about 1/16" thick. A quick search on eBay found some neoprene ones, pretty sure they would work: Â https://www.ebay.com/itm/Neoprene-Rubber-Washers-1-1-4-OD-X-3-4-ID-X-1-16-Thickness-Endeavor-Series/292147704896?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=591093796295&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649 Â Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
