Cracked my RSR 350 bulk head ring

[MrBanx]

Hello all. Im new to reefing and just recently bought a red sea reefer 350. Im overall pleased with the set up however, I seemed to have cracked the plastic ring under the bulk head. Everywhere that I've looked seems to have the part SP4601 out of stock. My question is... does anyone know the size/ diameter of the RSR350 bulkhead and perhaps is there an alternative part that I can use instead of the stock piece?

Maybe take the bulkhead out and go to a LFS to see if a standard bulkhead nut would fit it? Or, just buy a new bulkhead and replace the whole thing?
I don't own a Red Sea tank, so I don't know if they are using some proprietary bulkheads or whatnot.

RedSea may use metric plumbing …. dunno for sure, never owed one. Best option may be to measure the hole and buy a complete replacement …. and then don't torque it down quite so much.

I believe Red Sea uses Metric plumbing.

Thanks all. Someone recommended emailing red sea reefer. I did and was referred by them to a direct seller in Texas. They sent the part 2 day mail. I actually bought 2 for 3 bucks each and a box of replacement O- rings for $8.

Wondering if you know the company as I had the same thing happen and am looking for the same part. TIA
