Anyone know where I can get the flat oring that goes inside of a ball lock connector?
I've got a couple that I damaged putting back together too quickly (threads caught the oring). Seems like a waste to get a new connector.

Re: Ball Lock Connector O-ring?
McMaster-Carr had been a good source of keg orings, might be good in this case as well. Do you have dimensions?
I'd be up for several of these as well, if we do a group buy.

Re: Ball Lock Connector O-ring?
After doing some more googling I found people using the following silicone ones:
9396K18 (standard)
5233T37 (metric)
These aren't the squared side ones like the original, although people seem to have success with them.
I don't have a mcmaster account though.
Morebeer seems to carry them at $0.50ea, shipping is $31 though...

Wrap the shit out of it with Teflon tape.
Contact Dave and see what he can get.

We've done McMaster group buys previously, as several folks on here have accounts (I'm not one of them, unfortunately). I can see if one of them wouldn't mind doing that, when they have time. A pack of 50 of the 9396K18 is under $10, and would be a lifetime supply for five of us, I imagine.

Just looked this up. 9/16 x 7/16 x 1/16.
You could try Fastenall or Akland Granger and see if they can supply some. I'd take a few just in case.
