Freestyle Oring dimension ET1107 headshell

[Christian_83]

Hi
Does anyone have the dimension on the BIG oring, for the headshell on the ET1107 (im pretty sure, all the ET headshell uses same outer Oring)?
I bought a extra Oring kit from art when i got the engine, but only had the Oring for the domes (inner and outer)
And yes i did write to Art two times asking for the dimensions, but no answer.

1/16" cord stock

@zzylstra so 1/16" thick, but no diameter or length?
Is it not a "fixed ring" but just a line with ends cut 45deg neck2neck?

Original oring was a dash number size, I didnt waste my time sourcing it out. Oring stock works just fine for the 3 or 4 times ive changed mine out.

In fact most of the replacement ADA oring kits come with cord stock for the shell, thats mainly where I got the idea to use it

cut to length, superglue the ends together.

Like he said, it is just holding back low pressure water, not critical.

No i get the purpose and how it works guys
But i got a company 15min from me who produces seals, orings and they cost nothing. Therefore i might as well buy the ones that fits for spare, insted of a cord stock
I could also use RTV gasket maker like XS does. But i like to use best possible part

Spend the time you would finding the correct oring on something more beneficial for the Ski’s performance. Like maniac said it’s not a crucial part.

That’s understandable, maybe bring them your current oring and let them find the dash number for you?
