O ring for mag2

Anyone know where I can get just a replacement o ring for a mag2. One of my kids lost it while the pump was soaking for cleaning and now I can't get my calcium reactor back together. I looked at local hardware store and big chain stores but none have one big enough. Any ideas would be appreciated.

 

every good hardware store carries orings and there as good as the one that came with the pump they have all sizes

 

Both local small town hardware and lowes only had small (like 1/4 inch) to like 1 1/4. I need like ~2 1/4

 

well it seems that you have to buy cover to get the oring

Man it'd be like 13 bux lol. Maybe someone could give me exact specs on their o ring from their pump and see if I could find one online. Part of the problem is I dont know exactly the size I need and how thick it is.

 

i found you a good answer for your problem i'm gonna do this myself when my o ring fails

Danner Mag 3

 

I thought about doing that but the cons he listed was the impeller housing leaking lol. Was that before or after ditching the o o ring in favor of silicone lol.

 

i believe he's saying take out the oring and replace it with goop

 

Got it all together and the pumps dead anyway...I thought cleaning it out would of helped with the hard starts. So no I am looking for a replacement for the mag 2 and recommendations?
