Gasket Paper

[Abo Bob]

I managed to get some quite thick stuff from Repco but they pretty much told me that no one cuts their own gaskets anymore. They had a roll of the thick stuff which bought and said that was all they had.

I need to make some thinner gaskets for my motorbike rebuild. Who would stock this sort of stuff? Does anyone know how many thicknesses there are?

Bikes seem to use some weird paper gasket... the R6 motor anyways...

Supercheap i think have 2 types; one primarily for oil, the other is cork type. -the 1st one am mentioning is thinner. I can check it next time i go in....

People are gettin too lazy to make their own

we get ours from repco. we have a fair bit here if you want some . its 0.4 mm thick.

yeah we got thin stuff from supercheap. maybe repco meant we cant' charge our usual premium for a bit of paper so they dont want to sell it?
