Help! Need flat O-ring for wing!!! Denver DSS owners?

[H2ODoc]

We are just now packing for a trip, and I realized that my inflator-hose o-ring (where it connects to the wing) is gone!!!!

I'm turning the house upside down now looking for it. Any options that you can think of? Anyone in Denver with a wing like this - maybe I could borrow your o-ring???

I found a LDS that had a zeagle gasket and it appears to be the right size and thickness, and the wing holds air..... so .... I think I'm good!

No good reason to remove the hose from the wing, and now you have discovered a very good reason not to.........

Take a piece of inner tube from a car tire. Get some at a tire place. Cut it out and you are set. Dive shops have these if needed.

I would recommend against this. Inner tube is too thin.

The *best* way way to avoid this issue is to *NOT* remove hose or any of the wing fittings. There is *zero* reason to do so. Not necessary for cleanup, not necessary for storage and not necessary for transport.

Leave them be, and you won't loose or damage parts.
