Okay, still looking for these unobtoniable seals. I am looking for new/used rubber/metal seals in good shape. SC will be back on the road in two weeks and I can't reuse my old ones.

Gio,

A long time ago I took several days reading through the 'twin screw' thread taking notes along the way. Take a look at post #1147 on the 'twin screw' thread. It talks about using the search function on the Mcmaster.com site to look for 'pvc sealing grommet for pipe and tube'. I just looked but I don't know what the correct dimensions are. Hope that helps...

That is not the right part number, don't ask how know....

After receiving the wrong parts I measure the old parts, it does not match any of the measurements on mcmaster so I am looking to purchase used/new grommets. Aluminum grommets is fine too. Can paypal ASAP.

Did you try contacting Pizza? He's having some health issues at the moment and has I believe sold his shark, but he may be able to put you in touch with the crowd who did his small run of bushings to get more made?

Details in this post:

And his final design in these:

Bill Ball and a few others are using them on their Andy Keep setups.

Edit: nevermind - hadn't read the whole thread and missed Hans' post and your reply earlier in the topic.
