Don't waste your money, the last one I bought was rubish. The quality of material is not good , they perish very quickly and they are molded with a big flash around the centre line making a seal almost impossible. Nice looking plastic case though!!!

Have to agree with Sleepy on this one. The 0'rings are "brittle" certainly don't stretch and are different from what I buy at the local bearing place.

That's a shame, the first two sets I got from Aldi (about 6 years ago) were and still are great stuff. Not had a failure in oil, petrol or sealing. The  green and red case states  O rings made in Germany.
I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

I have used them with no problems only issue I have found is sometimes you have the right diameter but wrong section or vice versa. Handy to have lying around.
