    Default Where to buy 3/4" neoprane/rubber washers?

    I'm having a really hard time finding 3/4" neoprane or rubber washers (for a woodworking project!).

    Can anyone recommend a place to buy some? (preferably in Melbourne). I've had no luck at Bunnings or Reece Plumbing & Irrigation.

    Thanks!

    Wixy

    You might be able to use rubber grommets available from Dick Smiths or Auto Spares places. Or maybe Clark Rubber.

    Wixy, did you look at the Fix a Tap range of toilet washers in the plumbing dept at Bunnings?


    The beatings will continue until morale improves.

    Yup, but nothing in 3/4"

    The closest I came was finding one packet of 3/4" washers at a bunnings in the garden hose fittings section, but it appeared they were discontinued and there wasn't enough in the packet. I went to 3 other bunnings and all of them didn't sell them!

    Hi,

    Go to a gasket place, they will be able to stamp them out of neoprene sheet or may have some already. Try WASCA in Rowville.

    Cheers.
