I did research about O-rings specification Please let me know if I headed the wrong way. I checked out the local hardware shops (they are using an odd number on O-rings). They mostly carry Danco brand that is Buna-N (=Nitrile) O-rings. It costs about 50 cent each. But, I have no information about Danco O-rings durometers.
I found out that the most common spare rings are 003, 010, 014, 112, and 214 (please see the attachment). Air-Oil.com offers a really good price except the high S/H charge. Their shipping charge is the same no matter how many I ordered O-rings I am not sure if it is worth to have that many O-rings as a spare though. But, it must be a better deal than just heading to LDS. The attachment shows $11.57 shipped for the mostly used O-rings combination.
Many experienced divers in this board argue that the higher durometer, 90, is much durable in H.P. DA Aquamaster and Dan Gibson also verified that SP uses EPDM materials.
Please let me know if there is something I missed.
