I have purchased a number of items from jagmte.com and have been pleased with the quality. If you go to his site you will see his 'name' stands for "Just A Guy Making Things Easier".
The outer diameter of the part that it fits on is 55mm, and since you have a broken one, you should be able to measure the diameter of the ring itself. With those two numbers, you should be able to go to Grainger or McMaster-Carr and find an O-ring that would fit. That is what I would do.
Do you have the manuals? I have electronic copies that I got from MWMULES after he got one that was pretty complete. Warning, it's in German! You need to do a search in the site for 'Karcher' because there is someone else that recently got one.
You may have a white elephant. Most aircraft use 400 cycles, three phase in their electrical systems, because the wires can be smaller (think lighter, reducing weight). It probably has a civilian counterpoint, so someone who works or has worked as a 'ramprat' might be a good source of...
Moisture is in the air, and the metal cools faster than the air does, leading to water settling on the metal parts (hence your shorting problem). You need to store it either inside or in it's own air conditioned space if you cannot seal up all the places as kloppk suggested.
Because I have trucks sitting out where the sun shines on the tires every day, I decided to look into covering the ones on the south side to help extend their life a bit. Attached photo is what it looks like. etrailer.com has them in both white and black. I have 9.00 x 20's sporting the...
Have you tried contacting Karcher? They had a sales office in the US, or you could contact the German office. Don't know anything about German surplus sales, but you could do some Google searches.
Since I'm not currently looking, I have no idea who has what. You should try to contact some of our European members, or the European members of the MVPA for leads.
Probably not directly from Russia, however there are probably thousands of them in former eastern block countries or 'client' states on other continents that could be imported. For the definitive answer you will have to ask the US State Department because they are the ones that control the...
If you look at the picture in the post directly above yours, you will see "fss 33446 - THD21-273296". The first part of that is Federal Supply Service, and the second part id 33446, with the first digit meaning the finish (1-gloss, 2-semi-gloss, 3-flat), the next digit being the primary color...
Short answer = yes. Long answer = it depends. How demilitarized is is, will it pass all 'agricultural' and other safety inspections, do the buyer , the seller, and the shipper all have the correct (and complete) ITAR paperwork? BATFE will have to inspect any weapons related parts to insure...
1 ga copper! And at current scrap prices for copper I'll probably recoup what I paid by selling the excess 20 feet of black, red, blue and white (80 feet total). Overkill, yes, but not over budget!
Manuals MUST be marked as Distribution "A" for them to be available to the public (and "A" does stand for "ALL" meaning not just the American Taxpayers, but all our foreign enemies too.) The higher classifications become more restrictive with each letter. I've only seen one TM classified as...
That is a long run, go to the next larger gauge wire to cut line loss. I got a great deal on some 1 ga. for the 35 foot run betweeen the MEP-003A and the main panel - cheaper than buying the correct size (4 ga.) and I have almost 20 feet of 'scrap'.
