HopeSlayer, reliant is a good source. Ive ordered there and have snypes as well. Same thing. It takes a couple days for them to make em. If you want 50 durometer they have to special order and will take a little longer.

Snype get well soon brother

Guys....HIT LOWES AND HOMEDEPOT UP! If you search Snype's threads I put a picture of the washer's packaging in there. They might not have them in stock, though most stores I went to did, but at the very least you can order them off of their websites. I know they always keep warehouse stock of these washers since they are used in common bathtub plumbing to seal bathtub drains and they just happen to be the size and hardness that we need. Let me know if you have any questions.

Any holy shit Snype I hope your eyes get better bro.

All the information that everybody needs is inside this thread. Nobody is doing any "part list" for anyone because the part list is right on the first page. If you are having trouble with something as easy as a part list, you probably shouldn't be growing RDWC.

Other members have showed you other places to get the washers. I've given thousands of washers away for free to IC members and now I'm done with that. Members in this specific thread have showed you other washers that work perfect. Maybe you will be lucky and they will show you what they look like but it really doesn't matter what they look like because other members are using these washers on the systems.

I'm getting very annoyed of all the people PMing me asking questions that are already contained in my very organized threads. If you notice one thing about a lot of my important threads, the important information is contained right on the first page for your convenience.

NP snype, glad to see you around. Hopefully feeling a little better.

These are stupid cheap. Like 10-15 cents a piece, i cant find my invoice i think i shreded it already. So you will have lots of backups and more for expansions when needed. Minimum order is 250. Takes a couple days to make and a couple more to ship, its not overnight.

Washer 3/16" thickness x 1-7/8" ID x 2-1/4" OD Neoprene, Black in 50 durometer

I also picked up the Cantex 5140047C pieces from www.hardwareworld.com

NOTE: If picking up the 1.5" Male PVC Trap Adapter from lowes/home depot be sure it does not have the nipple on the threaded side. I had to go to city i work in to get them as both lowes/hd by my house only had ones with nipple. I will see if i can find one and take a pic. I dont understand why they put the nipple on the thread side as it would interfere with making a secure connection but im no pvc expert either. I think someone (stonefree?) posted a better electrical version of this piece but i didn't see it till later.

Hope this helps.

Hey, I have looked everywhere for the washers and called all over the country, checked ebay,etc

I am going to pickup some 5gal square buckets. Is it possible you could recommend a different piece and give me the size of the washers i could possibly use in place of them?

And btw I have read every post on this thread and the abundance of information and help is absolutely great. Thank you Snype, and everyone else

Does anyone have alternate part #'s on the 1.5" Female Trap adapter (Nibco) and 1.5" Male Trap Adapter (Nibco) it seems no one has these available. I found what I think to be an equivalent at Lowes it is the Charlotte Pipe 1.5" Male and Female Trap Adapter, but there is a nub where the washer would meet up. As I have not seen the Nibco ones in person I do not know if these will work, but because of the nub I do not think it will.

Its completely overgrown. Growth is insane in system. Couldnt keep up with training after a certain point without having to severly hurt plants, the stems are THICK. There is a screen burried in there somewhere. I have legs running thru screen from far corner bucket to 2/3 the length of the system and then still shot up 2-3'. Im out of ceiling space in 8' room. Fighting cal def issue early on, i have to use RO water or ph is uncontrollable with my tap.

I will be using something much more controllable on the next run, OGR Wifi-alien.
