Rexxis Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) Crite's page says he hopes people will order them as an add on and I won't be ordering anything else at the moment. Does anybody have extras laying around? If not and they are just rubber.. how thick are they and what is the ID and OD. I could likely just make a pair.

CECAA850 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I've used cardboard in a pinch and they're not getting swapped out unless/until they give me problems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrestonTom Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 The local car parts store will have gasket material (paper, neoprene, cork etc). It is easy enough to fabricate something (even easier if the old gasket is intact and can be used as a template). Good luck, -Tom. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rexxis Posted May 19, 2020 Author Share Posted May 19, 2020 Ok guys, does anybody know the material and thickness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coytee Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 There are adult materials that would keep it from leaking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, if you happen to be near Knoxville, TN (I realize it's low odds), I have some gasket material in my car you could have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use plumbing gasket ,it comes in sheets and even rolls ,comes in various thickness ---Orange ------works very well also to seal cabinets with no need of the sticky stuff that leaves residues - 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I found 2 sockets that were the same size as the ID and OD of the gasket and just traced them for my pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wuzzzer Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Bob has an eBay store where you can buy less than 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coytee Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Ya know.... all this time I was thinking "mid driver"..... as in "mid range"..... as in, the gasket that might go between the horn and the enclosure. I was totally wiffing on the idea it might be the gasket between the driver and the horn. Consequently, I was thinking the gasket was something like (no clue) three inches by nine inches..... oops. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
