Hello,
I recently bought a second hand Faber tank and it came with a SOS (San-O-Sub) valve that I am pretty sure uses the service kit shown below:
dirzone-revision-kit-for-mono-valve-m25---o2-clean.jpg


Does anybody know the dimensions of the copper ring and the small o-ring (bottom right one in the image above)?? The o-ring is the one that goes around the stem.

I want to see if I can get them easily in local market before I make the decision to open/inspect/clean the valve. Basically I need the copper ring to ensure that I can close again the valve. The o-ring will be nice to have too just in case.

Thanks

4. 1pcs inlet o-ring, ID24.99×W3.53, viton (Part # IR14-214V)
5. 1pcs bonnet gasket, Ø11.2×Ø16×0.8mm, copper (Part # BG06-1C)
6. 1pcs valve seat&plug assembly, 1/2"-20UNF, brass, teflon coated, PVDF insert (Part # VS10BV-A)

Thanks. I'll first have to open the valve to check its' interiors. The tank was practically new. The seller claimed less than 10 dives and from the look of it, it seems he has been honest.
BTW I just noticed you are based in Cyprus. It is great to know we have such specialized resources nearby.
All the best.
