I need some orings for my gas and liquid diptubes pretty quick. Anyone know if Lowes or Home Depot has any that work well?
 
They should have them. Bring the old ones along, so you can match them up.
Old-fashioned plumbing (or general) hardware stores, if there are any left, could likely help you too.
 
Our local fleet/farm type place has big selection of little bits in those Hillman parts assortments.

Multiple drawers of standard and metric size orings to pick from.
 
Usually expensive as heck though to buy them that way, especially at Lowes or HD...
I wasn't going to mention that since the OP said needing them "pretty quick."
And yeah, you're right, sold by the piece their price is astonishing, a roundout rip-off. 😲

I don't think it is a rip-off. In our county, they pay an inventory tax just for those things hanging there.
As a homebrewer, I keep spare parts to avoid problems.
 
My local grainger location I can just walk in or order ahead and pick up locally. Basically the same day

Maybe you can email me some orings and I'll pay you double the express mail charges for the trouble...:ghostly:... I live so rural the wildlife complains about the shopping. I love it here, except when I need keg orings quick that I recently ran out of. Anyway, I scounged up enough of what I needed to hold me for a few days. Thanks for the replies, all.
