Fish Food Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEM Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headhunter Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Food Posted November 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 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!

Headhunter Posted November 6, 2016 Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
