Greetings from Kentucky!
I am new to the forum, but not new to home brewing.
Usually, I bottle in half gallon growlers or corny kegs. I have a couple 2 liter growlers with swing lids. The gaskets are about 2.2" OD and 1.05" ID and I have found several suppliers of those. However, I have a 1.5 liter growler for which the gasket is 1.25" OD and 0.45" ID. I cannot find a supplier of those.
Anyone have some advice on this matter?
Slianthe,
Ray
 
If you can't find them commercially available, I would seek out a rubber supply store.. I have one locally and they provide all things rubber to industrial and commercial applications.. (including foodsafe) I have given them homebrew to help me solve my "brewerys" rubber problems (gaskets, orings, seals and such)
 
If it's truly the size of a Grolsch gasket, they are available online. I use them to help secure my guitar strap (a straplock without having to mod the guitar).

Also, my LHBS sells them. Let me see if I can find where I got them...
 
Trustyoljohnson and Hwk-i-st8, thanks for the responses. I may need to have them made. The ones I need are between the readily available pint bottle size and the 2 liter growler size. Can't fine them available commercially anywhere.

Not even at McMaster-Carr? If you haven't looked there that is

Clearbeer1, if you have the readily available small gaskets for pint bottles, I have those. And, I can get the large ones for 2 liter growlers. But, the one I am looking for is between those two in size. Can't find them.
Thanks for your response!
