What kind of O-rings do I need?
« on: January 29, 2009, 04:13:31 PM »
I started tuning my new QB79 tonight and I need 2 new o-rings.  They are the ones that go on the "adapter" (thats what it's called in the manual).  The block that the paintball tank screws onto.  Part # 5900 in the manual.  I'm hoping someone can tell me the proper dimensions and material and maybe I can order the correct ones from McMaster-Carr.

use the same ones that fit the paintball tank....deburr the holes in the tube good, you may want to buy a pack of ten of the o-rings that way you will have some on hand when it starts to leak...

Yup..p Those are the ones! YOu can get them in a 5 pack at Walmart for 2 bucks I believe. It's been a while since I bought some, so I may be wrong on the price & quantity. But they DO sell them!

Thanks for the tip!  I have a paintball store right by my house, so I'll see if I can pick up a pack of o-rings there.
