FWB Sport breech seal.

[gtfreight]

Hi,

Does anybody know the size of the breech seal for the Sport please?
I have tried 2 metric sizes (11mm i/d x 2.5mm c/s and 11mm x 3mm) to no avail and I can't find a 2.75mm c/s so I'm coming to a dead end.
It wouldn't be an imperial measurement would it?

Thanks in anticipation.

Gary.

from memory it's a 10 x 3, but I'll check in a few mins after brekkers.

The pack in the Garage says : Nitrile 70 Rubber O Rings, 3 x 10mm.

However, I don't know if they are exact replacements, as although I've been using them for years, they might be the wrong material and hardness rating, but they certainly work on a temporary basis.

Hi Vic,

You sent me a couple last year when I bought some bits from you. They are a good fit but the first one has spread out a little over 6 months so I'm looking for replacements before the second one wears out. If I buy 20 they should last around 10 years which is fine by me.
VTR 70 are widely available in that size so I shall get some ordered.
When I measured the recess I read it as 11mm i/d x16mm o/d so that was the size I ordered but the fit was not tight enough so I ordered 11mm x 17 mm which were to tight, I never thought to go down to 10mm.
By the way since you worked on my Sport it's been treated to a re-blue and the plastic trigger has been replaced with a Maccari one which cured the safety catch issue. It's looking georgious now as well as shooting spot on.

Many thanks,
Gary.

I too have seen them for sale from Chambers but at over £7 with postage I would rather buy 25 for a fiver now I've got the correct size from Vic.
Thanks for the heads up though.

Regards,
Gary.

As above for me.
