Lewmar Standard Portlight handle O rings size

[Kevin Johnson]

Does anyone know the size of the O ring that is used in the Lewmar (old) Standard portlight handles. Lewmar only sells bags of 100. I think this may be where the leaking is coming from and I do not need the handles just the O rings.

I ordered a handle from West Marine but would prefer to buy just the O rings. Thanks

Almost "just the O rings"!

The $7 kit is needed to get the right seal. I have a Old Lewmar port light replacement built by these guys. Perfect fit, perfect instructions and good follow up after the sale. Lewmar gave them CAD and CAM drawings of there design.

I have had very good experience with Select Plastics in Connecticut with Lewmar hatch parts. I suggest you call Anne there at 203-866-3767.
