Kinda a crazy but gotta ask. Anyone know where I can get spare O rings that go on drip tips that fit most 510 cartomizers like Boge, smok and Ikenvape? I think I need a few spare ones for when I manage to break or lose the ones that come with the tip. Yes...I can take O rings off other tips and put them on the desired tip...but I'd just like to maybe have a few spare around. Anyone know of anyone that sells a package of those things? Just a few...nothing big deal?

Or take your DT to an Ace's Hardware store. They have 'bout the best selection.

Thanks Iffy. Hubby has an extra (really small) metal lathe in his shop. I am going to try my hand at turning a few SS drip tips on it once it warms up a bit. We have a heater in the shop but it is to costly to turn it on for me to play. I wouldn't have thought about checking at Ace for the 0-rings.

see now, whatcha wanna do is take one of them hair scrunchy things, measure out about the exact diameter of that there drip tip. Now comes the tricky part, wrap it carefully around the base and you wanna take your superglue there and put just a drop to secure that their scrunchy in place. bammo! your welcome.

Harbor Freight tools sells a giant box of assorted sized o-rings for about 3-4 bucks. im not sure you would need all the sizes but some of the larger ones i've used to re-o-ring my carto tank once....and of course for drip tips

harbor freight is nation wide even if you dont have a store in your area you ought to be able to get online and order

If you just need a couple you're local hardware store should have them. If you want to get em in builk for less cost per, this is where I get mine.

For drip tips if my mind serves me correctly I think it's, 3/8" OD x 1/4" ID x 1/16” or 11/32” OD x 7/32” ID x 1/16 that fit the best but if you're getting them local just take it with you or if you're ordering online a quick google search will confirm the size needed.
