Connections O-Rings

[bb615]

Hello all,
in your opinion are these o-rings good to be used as connections for line and also to lock the front power line attached to the safety line?

Thank you all

They look good and knowing how strong stainless steel is they should be strong enough. Biggest size 10,5mm is the correct one I think but it would be best to check what size FS has used.

Splicing a ring in the end of line is quite neat way to make a universal knot/loop connection.

Thank you, in real I have to buy them in order to complete my carbon home made bar and I would like to connect the safety line as in the picture and the ring is functional to lock the front line.
For connecting line I agree is the same have a good terminal knot.

Should be fine for that application (looks a bit tight though!) They have a much squarer profile than the flysurfer mini rings (pic below), so I am less sure about using them as line connectors as they *might* cut into the lines

for this purpose I using this: (the biggest size, I take two of them to have a bigger diameter and to be sure)

Advantage: no direct contact with safety line. I used it several times and it works.

Why Alibaba?

Any fishing shop has a decent Japanese made SS O-rings for salt water. Heaps of sizes.

On first link it does not say which SS it is....

I looked all around the web to find some rings similar to FS ones ... the closest one are indeed these one on Aliexpress or in-line fishing shops ;

But you can buy some directly to Flysurfer , since they are definitely less agressive with a perfect round section ; not visible on FS site but you can contact them they can sell some , in two sizes ; there is one german web site that also sells FS spares but I cannot recall the name.

Pansh bars also have this little perfect O'ring, so It does not seem to be Flysurfer exclusivity
