I sold a customer this hoist, and, unfortunately, upon delivery the
sight glass was broken.

Here are some pictures:

He says that it is a round glass with a little groove for a o-ring.

My question is, where can I buy him a replacement glass, any idea?
McMaster seems to have complete assemblies only?
Try the manufacturer of the hoist, or better yet, go to the class
source,Swift Glass, Corning New york - contact 131 W. 22nd Street,
Elmira, NY 14903 • Phone 607.733.7166 You want a borosilicate
sight glass - give them the diameter and thickness and I'm sure they
can fix you up. They carry Corning, Schott, Pilkington, Maxos, etc.

I've purchased several glass rounds from McMaster.

This is not my area, but it looks like something that wants some
strong glass -- tempered, or, better yet, borosilicate, as Clare said.

And jeez, Iggy, teach someone how to do a proper job with Teflon tape.
That one looks like a gob of spit. g
