So I examined my bottle stopper and noticed a couple rings have tears in them. PSI is sending me an entire new kit, but I would love to be able to salvage this other one by simply replacing the black flexible silicone ring. So far I have not found a place to get them from. I emailed the guys over at Woodturningz to see if they have them or not. I also have looked on woonwhimsels, and did a Google search. If anyone knows of a place please let me know.

Thanks!

Try your local Ace Hardware. They have a pretty wide selection of O rings and you never know, they just might have it.
 
Actually the one I am talking about looks like below. If it were a single ring, I would have no problems finding one of those. I don't think they would carry these would they?

You have to use silicone not rubber. Rubber will impart a bad taste to the wine.

Right that is the picture of the piece that came with the kit and it was torn in spots. It says in the kit desc. that it is flexible silicone, not rubber. Who knew something like this would be so hard to replace lol.
