I dont see HNBR available as option for X-rings from Mcmaster. Just silicone, Buna, and Viton.
So i guess Viton? That's the part number Kawibunga lists in that quote

That sounds good to me! I'll pay 55% of that or whatever is best to round up to if you will receive the order and ship me 10 of them... Kawibunga perhaps could use some as well as SlickNick, although I believe Nick is in Canada? It might be best for him to source them up there.

Yeah, from McMaster - I'd go with Viton as first choice, Buna a second as that's all they have, they don't have HNBR, But my guess is BUNA will work fine.

And in Canada you need a corporate account to order from McMaster - but we got one so I had ordered my supply on a work order, so I have a bunch of spares if slicknick wants to try them out, a yeah he's located here in Calgary too, so would not a be a problem at all to sort that out. Hoping to have the modified parts in hand on Wednesday this week.....

Order placed for 50 Viton X rings. Chuck, I still have your mailing address from our email exchange about the 5x8 silicone o-rings. I'll put a dozen of the X-rings in an envelope and post 'em over to ya asap.
If anyone else in the states wants a few, just drop me a line and we'll work it out.
