Gasket for CCT

Post by boz »

I'm trying without joy to find a stockist of CCT gaskets. Does anyone know of one or would it be the case of making my own. If so, what would be the correct gasket material to buy?

David Silvers has them in stock http://www.davidsilverspares.co.uk/part ... mber_8749/

bog standard gasket card - there's a template file for printing it out if you have search on the Workshop section somewhere.

Though you can get away with tube of blue gasket.

Just use instant gasket mate. Can use it as a threadlock on the manual cct's as well.

There is no need whatsoever to use gaskets on these.
The mating faces are flat and smooth, and a smear of silicon sealer does the job perfectly.
Using gaskets is a waste of money, and pointless.

Just my opinion, of course, but if you want to waste your money go ahead.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Or you could download the gasket template and cut them out of the side of a cereal packet??

Not that I'd do such a thing?! :shh:
