Anyone know the diameter and thickness sizes of the o rings for female QR couplings?

Need to get some ordered.

I have always used the triple seal QR's but on heat the viton seals can fail prematurely so I use viton which last longer. I have changed to stainless which obviously dos'nt corrode which also gives the seals an easier life

I thought exchanges o rings were pricey but they are cheaper than malcleanse.

i boought 3 sets with a load of other stuff. Only used one set. im using the brass/stainless coating qr. bit of wd40 every now and them keeps them sweet.

To be honest I don't get through too many unless I run the hot box. It's way cheaper to get the sizes and buy a bag of them. I'll measure them after BAH HUMBUG
