WTB: rubber washers on circuit boards

[Guest]

Archived from groups: rec.games.pinball (More info?)

Anybody have an idea where I can get the little rubber washers that are on
circut boards. I was working on my 3 bank drop target the other day.
Removed it from the playfield and was going to replace it, started pulling
out the rubber rings that the post attach to, and the rings just started
falling apart. Dried and old. Where can I get new ones????

I am not sure of what size you need. However I have purchased some
small rubber rings at Radio Shack before.

I believe what you're looking for is called a grommet.

These go in the holes on the circuit boards to allow them to "float" and
not get beat up from vibration.

Radio Shack or just about any hardware store should have assortments and
maybe even single sizes

Most Bally/Williams drop target opto boards use rubber grommits- not
washers. You can usually find these at electronics supply stores, some
specialty hardware stores, auto parts stores- those sorts of places. You
may want to take an old one, or the PC board, in with you to match up the
size.

I found them to be least expensive at the old fashion neighborhood ace
hardware.

Home depot and Lowes were 5x as expensive.
