Redboat,
Your illustration at the top is closest to reality. The o-rings are trapped and squeezed by the ends of the tubes, along the body section, and the end caps are exactly as you have depicted, but also have a shoulder to squeeze against in the inner diameter, which keeps things centered. It's very tough to do, but you could extrude the o-rings if you got really gorilla-fisted in tightening the thumb screws. Just pay attention to the process and tighten the crews evenly and you'll be golden!Last edited by wlambing; 09-18-2021, 10:13 AM. -

Regarding the rods, I'm assuming 3 in an equilateral triangle arrangement would be "the absolute minimum" number to ensure proper compression of the O-ring.Make it simple, make strong, make it work!Comment
