They're definitely not the same o-ring...MTN and Grizzly!

If it is just a  plain O-Ring and not groved or a special shape I would try an Industrial Plumbing Supply that has large O-Rings that are used on Commercial Domestic Hot Water Units and therefore are quite large and are food grade safe. I have purchased O-rings that are 6 inches in diameter and larger for such units. Good Luck!!!

Thanks gents.  It is a grooved O ring, unfortunately.  I've got a query into Weston.  Seems all these companies today have forgotten what a phone is.  They all want you to contact them via email, and take days to answer, if at all.

At the moment I'm dead-in-the-water, where my stuffer is concerned.  Almost ready to fabricate a new plunger, sans O ring, out of a synthetic cutting board.

Hope someone's still following this thread.  I have an MTN and have busted that ridiculously expensive O ring.  It's either replace it or look for a new stuffer!  Problem is, I can't find a source for parts.  Anyone have a company or telephone number for me?
 

MTN stuffer? is it a gander mountain stuffer or a elk mountain product... What size, do you have a picture of the unit..... more info.......

I use my stuffer with no O ring at all as It seems to allow the air to get out better. The meat is stiff enough when cold and have had no issue doing this at all.

Your o ring has the v groove? like the one on the right in post 13... Cabelas uses this type. I would check with them...  I'll look through my stuff for spare parts and see what I can find

Grainger has silicone o-rings....  Seems buying 1 is about the same as buying a package...   At least you will have a stuffer that can function...  Dave

This is what my MTN stuffer looks like.  Thanks for posting the pix, Mike.  My own stuffer's cylinder has an inner diameter of approximately 5.75 inches and a length of 8 inches.  I think it would be classified as a 5 pound.

Thought I'd check back in with the final solution. After A LOT of searching and research, this site helped me the most in fining a replacement O ring for my MTN stuffer.  I couldn't find the exact fit, but went out on a limb and bought one from Weston supply that has a grooved ring, much like the one I needed to replace.  The ring had a very slightly different ID and OD that the one I broke, but it stretches just enough to fit the plunger and works great.  Shipping cost more than the product.

Thanks guys.
