Gaskets... where to get em?

[jaybfresh]

Anyone know a local source in the cuse to get precut gaskets for bulkheads? Lowes and HD dont have them. I'll check Ace tomorrow.

I'll just use the "cut-it-yourself" gasket squares if need be, but it'd be simpler just to get one the right size

There is a local place in Lancaster out this way. Dont know the name but know where it is.

what size bulkhead do you need a gasket for? I might have a bunch extras laying around. Could drop one in the mail if need be

Ive heard of people using plumbers putty if you have a leaky gasket, but I doubt it would be good to use instead of a gasket

Do you have a Grainger open on Saturdays near you?

I don't know how "reef safe" they are, but pool stores usually carry replacements for the larger ones.

Shouldnt have even wasted my time searching... went to ABC Reefs and got what I needed for less than a buck.

Thanks for the suggestions all
