Drain Gaskets

Hello,

I purchased a Clipper 17bh in April, Already managed to loose on of the gaskets that goes on the low-point drains for the tank/water lines. I contacted the dealer and he was rude and un-helpful. I was wondering if someone knew where to get them?

Now get back to having fun!

Thanks,
Kenny

We'll maybe, just to check I looked at two mfgs I have. Both are rectangular in section, not "O" ring. The mating side is ribbed for effective seal when squeezed up. The ring pictured goes on both sides of dump valve. Whoever sells 3"hose should have the ribbed gaskets.

OK. Sorry. I'm on smart phone and didn't check to see what unit you had. Never considered square.

Just today I was in Wally World. I found the slinky piping and they had an fitting from Camco which is a 90 deg hose end piece with the gasket you need. Rect. with ribs as we thought. The fitting is $3.77, probably less than the gasket alone in a RV shop.
