Picked these up at lunch time in Aldi - could be handy to have for anyone doing a diy boiler or a keggle etc - a box load of assorted washers and seals - 6.99 - I'm sure if u are in the middle of your conversion and have to pop into woodies, you will pay something like 1.50 for a pair -

Not sure on sizes yet but will take a look when i get home. Must be something of use in there

cider....any idea what the orange fibre washers are made of?

Ciderhead

Orange, They all look black to me,
Guys you can use them but just know that they are not food safe.
Some may also not be suitable above 80 degrees.

I saw a really clever idea recently where a guy used them put over his sightglass to mark the level.
