Kobalt air reel replacement O-rings

[Demon Speed]

New here, first post, hello all.

I have Kobalt air hose reel. This is the second one I've had. It's developed a leak at the o'rings at the center of the reel. I tried contacting Kobalt with no luck. I found the o-rings in the parts manual but there is no part number or size info.

The correct dimensions of o-ring is difficult to determine due to the constructions of the swivel. The old o-rings were flattened and worn so I didn't trust measuring them either. I tried a handful of different sizes that were close but none fit correctly.

Does anyone happen to know the correct size or part number of the o-rings?

Thanks,
Brandon

Harbor Freight's metric O-ring set for 9.99 will have it and all the metric 0-rings you will need, It is not the red set, I think it is blue.

Harbor freight's (and other's) assortment of orings get thick very quickly when you go up in size. I've run in to problems where they are too thick to fit. IF the assortment does not work, measure the OD ID and cross section size and order from the theoringstore.com if necessary. If you have a scuba shop nearby, they'll be able to match one up for you too. Probably also a hydraulic supply store would do the same, but here there are a lot more scuba stores.

Hey Demon Speed - did you find the o-rings for the Kobalt hose reel?
