DIN filter o-ring for Apeks DST

[Scubaroo]

I just bought a DIN converter for my Apeks DST first stage, from a private seller. It needs the o-ring for the little cone filter that sits inside of the DIN fitting (inside of the regulator) - does anybody know the correct size of this o-ring, and a source? I'd rather not have to buy an entire service kit. ReefScuba have a large selection of o-rings, but you need to know what size you want first.

Go to your LDS and see if they can't find one that fits. There's only so many basic sizes, likely won't be a biggie.

I don't have one handy to check, but from the size chart in the Apeks literature, it looks like an 012. (the Apeks part # for it is AP1409). You can often by individual O-rings very cheaply at a bearing-and-seal supply house.

Thanks all.

The Apeks part number is the useful bit - using that I found this link which gives an o-ring chart for the Apeks regulators - looks like it's an 011 o-ring. Luckily I'm in Monterey tomorrow, so I should be able to pick one up.
