Any supplier needs to know the OD or ID, the material diameter and what material they are made from. If you need a fair number, I can recommend these people: http://www.grommets.co.uk/ Colin Bignell |

I'd prefer O rings Take your pick: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/225pc-Rubb...item3a6fcc1143 -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |
