fibre washers

[TonyW]

What size fibre washers are you after Keith?

[GTB]

in need of some fibre washers as currently the loco makes a nice hot water spitting feature  :roll:  where does one obtain such items these days?

I bought some red fibre washers recently from one of the local car accessory shops in 3/16", 1/4" & 5/16" ID sizes.

No idea what the equivalent of SuperCheap Auto would be in the UK, but you must have something similar selling them in small packs.

A quick Google search for 'fibre washers UK' turned up several suppliers with both metric and Imperial sizes.

Graeme

I have found cycle shops are a good source of these washers...

B and Q do some multipack boxes various generic sizes, as do some Maplins strangely enough.

This might sound a little daft, but Roundhouse do a little "maintenance kit" with all sorts of washers (fibre included) in it - worth a try?
