xvalve bumper info??

[OEM Petey]

Hey guys. I was wondering if anyone knows the ID, OD and thickness of the xvalve bumper. And If you guys new exactly what material it is made of? Durometer number?

Yes, I have a ruler =).. just want to see if you guys have exact numbers. I dont have an accurate tool to measure.

Thanks in advance

sounds like you want to make your own, it doesn't need to be exact. its just there to provide some cushioning, as for the material - just get it as close as you can.

i really don't think the valve bumpers are so expensive that you need to make your own. but whatever...

haha.. im not trying to make my own.. i found i site that sells industrial stuff for pretty cheap prices (kinda like homedepot except they sell the washers in multiples of 50 or 100).. seeing if any other their washers would imitate a bumper.

$2.00 for a bumper vs $5.00 for a pack of 50
