Can anyone help me with Pluto Gun seals
I have had brief search through the forum before asking what has probably been asked before.

I have a Keg King Pluto gun with a leak out the rear end. I bought the gun and Cornelius kegs second hand so not sure of age but it would be at least 5 years old.

The guts of the gun look like this. The seal thats leaking is the one to the left of the spring.

The two seals removed look like this (the white ones). They are slightly different sizes. The black one on the left is one I bought through a brewing shop which will fit the gun tip but not the shaft.

I ordered a "Pluto Gun Seal Kit" through Liquorcraft but that consisted of 3 O-rings, none of which fitted any part of my gun.
I have phoned Liquorcraft, Kegking and numerous other places but no-one seems to have seen these types of seals before.

At the moment I have replaced the seal with an O-ring from an assortment kit but the ID is a bit sloppy and it still leaks slightly.

Any help appreciated.
Cheers
Ian

Hey Ian,

Sorry I can't help but hope you can help me. I'm trying to find a oring tip like you have on the left of the picture but I have no idea where. Where did u buy yours?

Thanks Daisy
 
Is it the same one in the andale catalogue, page 7 part 7?

I'd point out btw that just because it's a hemispherically shaped o-ring oem doesnt mean an equivalently sized normal o-ring wont do the job...

So a normal o ring may do the job? Interesting so any suggestions to what type/size and where I can buy one?

Thanks daisy
