[SML] Jac-Pac Issue

[dale]

O rings only come in standard sizes. Except for nasa rocket booster orings.   
I go to grainger or whomever and order one of those assortment kits if I'm not sure what size I need.  Which for me is everytime, I have no idea how you would even measure one.  
The o ring sealing surfaces need to be completely clean and smooth.  Something as small as a human hair across the surface provides a leakage path.   If you have shreds of rubber in there,  then time to clean and inspect.  Lubricate if indicated.  If the metal is gouged, then repair or replacement of the fitting is indicated.

Anyone own the Jac-Pac CO2 device that uses paintball tanks to provide convenient air supply for pneumatic tools. I need to know if there is an O-ring in the regulator/tank connector. I have tried contacting the manufacturer without success. I have the yellow older model and it's leaking air around the threads which the troubleshooting guide says is caused by a bad O-ring on the cylinder. The O-rings on my cylinders look good, but I saw the remnants of one in the connector and I don't know where it came from. 
Muchas Mahalos.
