Replacing black washer on Gemlux compression latch

I have one of my Gemlux compression latches that has become harder and harder to close and open.  I recently noticed that the black washer that sits under the handle is cracked and is causing the problem.  Does anyone know where I could purchase something locally?  Has anyone tried something to remedy this?  

Thanks!

I am sure if you called Genlux they would ship one out to you immediately, and probably for free!

Otherwise, check with your local Napa store.  They might have something that will work.

Are you sure it's the washer or is it the rings? If it's Theo rings you can get them at the auto parts store. I changed them all on my 20 ft pathfinder. Two Orin's per latch if I remember right.

Headhunter,

If it is the black washer looking things on the latches, plastic of some sort then yes.  I will look for them at the auto part store next time I am there.  Thanks. I will get in touch with Gemlux if I can't figure it out quickly.  Thanks all for the help!

I am sorry for the auto spell correction. They are "o" rings and there are two on each latch. Take one latch apart and you can take the latch handle with you so you get the right one.

good luck
