Who sells o-rings for tig back caps?

[chevy2]

Melted a couple recently on wp9 back caps,
I'm guessing they're cheap quality ones and not able to handle the heat,

Dont really want to keep buying more back caps when all i need is the o-rings but dont seem to be able to find them sold alone?

I've not tried regular black rubber o-rings,
Anyone tried them and do they handle the heat?

A lead on a supplier would be good ta.

Part number is 98w77. Should be available from any decent supplier, for example 10 pack at buck and hickman, individually from rapidwelding, ignore the 41v33 thing in the title it's a wp9/20 etc short backcap part number

One of the reasons I love this forum, someone will know and help in detail.

A quick skeg in my stocks they look to be BS009 in Silicone so won't be cheap (Nitrile are 2-4quid per 100) but won't break the bank
