Went to Ace Hardware yesterday and was able to find the o-rings I needed by getting some in metric and some in standard as they didn't have them in all metric or all standard. The ceramic went in smoothly just like in the video. Was so much different than the experience I had the first day trying to get the ceramic installed with the wrong size o-rings.

When I get to work I'm going to get with one of my engineers to make sure I have the right McMaster-Carr o-ring sku's and I'll post them here.

The o-rings from McMaster-Carr for iAtty are listed below. I got the measurements from the thread for o-rings:

US Measurements:

9/16 x 1/16 sku# 9452k59 (Base of Connector)
3/32 x 3/32 sku# 9452k317 (Ceramic)
5/32 x 1/16 sku#9452k15 (Ceramic)

Or another option for Ceramic:
(2 each of) 1/8 x 1/16 sku#9452k14 (Ceramic)


5/32 x 3/32 sku#9452k167 (Mouthpiece)



Metric Measurements:

14/1.5 sku#9262k634
2/2 NO SKU LISTED
4/1.5 sku#9262k422
3/1.8 NO SKU LISTED
4/2 sku#9262k163

**just put the sku# in the search box at the top and it will take you right to the o-ring to order. I would go the US measurement route as you can see some of the metric sizes they don't sell, and they sell over 480k items.

Disclaimer: I double checked these part numbers and you should too!!

Imeo;

As a product design enhancement, how about extending the cone tube slightly (more) through the top cap so that you can sandblast the top part to make it easier to get a grip on the tube so it can be opened/closed easier while assembled. Once it gets juice on it it's hard to turn but also hard to tell if you indeed even turned it.

Hmm, I thought the ceramic had 2 of the same exact size o-rings on it?

you can use two of the exact same size if you want. Some folks have had no problems getting them inserted. Using the two different sizes and you'll be able to insert the ceramic into the plastic as easily as Imeo did in the video. I can vouch for that.

You're very welcome Ace. Just helping out the family here. :)

BTW. I found out that McMaster-Carr carry the resistance wire. If anyone ordering o-rings would like to save on shipping from one location.

0.16mm = sku# 8880K84 High-Temperature Nickel Wire .006" Diameter.

They also have 0.13mm sku# 8880K85 High-Temperature Nickel Wire .005" Diameter.

Thanks for posting Repent. Appreciate it. Now do you know where to get the ceramic so I don't have to buy a cartomizer

Guys the USA messurments are not right. I am almost sure that the 2 same o-rings for ceramic will be thin for the ceramic. They are 3/1,6 when we need 3/1,8. The o-ring for mouthpiece is not right too because we need 4/2 and they are 4/2,4. I think that the ceramic o-rings will go very easy inside so maybe we will have leakage and the o-ring for mouthpiece is too big and it will not fit.

I havent check the other o-rings for UFS, GGTS etc but I am sure they arent the right ones all of them
