Perlick o-rings
« on: March 20, 2015, 09:50:21 PM »
Hi all, do any of you guys have any extra Perlick o-rings kicking around for sale or trade?

Looking for these here in particular:

Let me know, thanks.

No, sorry. Just curious... Did you have the  ill-famed perlick leak?

Yeah, I suspect (and hope) it's simply a matter of getting some new o-rings and it'll stop the leak.
Just on one tap. But I may replace the other taps as well.
Wear and tear I hope...

I don't think everwood carries them.

I got mine very reasonably priced at http://www.kegoutlet.com/fa200-425-8-perlick-525ss-faucet-replacement-parts.html

O-rings are: FA200-425-8, FA200-43838, FA200-308-3-2P

Shipping is nuts but if you email them they'll put them in a small letter type package thats very cheap. Check with cary@kegoutlet.com.

Remember perlick tap assemblies (especially the 525's) should not be assembled with a wrench (unless attaching to a shank), just hand tighten as the little o-rings will crimp and potentially leak if you tighten too much...

Thanks for the advice @brew. Maybe that's my problem with the tightening. I don't recall using pliers or anything to tighten but I'll take it apart again.

Funny, I did just order yesterday afternoon from Keg Outlet. I checked a number of other websites but ended ordering from there. It went well. Flat rate $9.99 shipping. I bought a couple of other items for maintenance as well.

I'm late to the party, but check with Dave at Everwood. A lot of us Brewnosers needed these do not sure if he has any left kicking around.

I checked the everwood website but there weren't any. Maybe I should've emailed him. I ended up ordering some from the Excited States.

Yeah, not sure they ever made it to the site. If anyone else is looking, it's worthwhile dropping Dave an email.
