Responding to every bit of mis-information on the web is an impossible task.
 If anyone wants to know what I am using, just ask.

snips....

What is the section diameter of the inner TES O ring you are using?

So much for:

I think Tracy is using .098" in section diameter which is too large.

As I stated in my original message (conveniently snipped) "I am using the
same O-rings sold on my website"  as opposed to your statement that I was
not (also snipped).

As to questions about the O-rings themselves, I don't have the time or
willingness to disclose every specification, process, material, etc that
goes into the products sold on my website (what company does?).  If this
bothers you, my advice is not to buy them.

As to Brian's complaints in earlier messages on the subject,  I'll just say
that of course it is possible that he got a defective O-ring.  If it
happened, I am truly sorry and and we always offer a replacement when that
happens.  Without going over my records in detail (time is a factor here,
sorry if that sounds arrogant to Brian), it has happened about 4 times out
of the approximately 1800 sets sold during the past several years.  The
problem is usually an O-ring that is slightly too short to easily fit into
the groove.  Although Paul's solution of streaching the O-ring slightly does
work, we never expect the customer to do this unless they choose to.  We
gladly replace the O-ring.

The obvious question that comes to mind about Brian's situation is:  Why
would you continue to use a product you know to be defective for 3 years?
Again, sorry if that sounds arrogant.

Tracy Crook,  RWS

That is what I thought. Your O-rings have too large a section diameter.
