Wicks Aircraft offers O-Ring kit

By Janice Wood · February 6, 2013 ·

Wicks Aircraft now offers a selection of  O-rings in a kit for homebuilders.

“The temptation is always there to re-use things like O-rings, and the result is too-often a leaky seal,” says Wicks president Scott Wick. “Having to take time to find or order O-rings makes that temptation even greater. With our Home Builders Kit, there are lots of sizes, and lots of O-rings in each size; and it’s less expensive in time and money than running to the supply shop for just a couple individual O-rings.”

With 382 O-rings made of a 70 durometer nitrile polymer and sized from 006 to 327, the O-rings store easily in their protective plastic box that keeps everything sorted, he noted.

The kit is priced at $32.19, and is available immediately.

    This exact same kit can be had from Harbor Freight for $7.00. Not a similar kit – the EXACT kit. I wonder what else they are over pricing.
