Does anyone know where to buy this gasket, or what material might be used to make one? It fits on the inside of the double-wall metal fount poultry waterers. How to describe it..... it seals the hole on the inside wall, so that when you lift the outer section off, the springy metal strip pulls the gasket against the hole on the inside - to keep water from escaping while you're filling the waterer. When you put the outer wall back on, it presses the metal springy strip back into the inside of the tank, moving the gasket away from the inner wall and allowing water to fill the trough. It measures about 1" x 3/4" x 3/16" thick, and looks like this:
I've spent the better part of the last two hours searching the internet for it to no avail. I can't find contact info for Harris Farms who makes the waterers (does anyone have a manual for, say, an incubator by this company with contact info?) , nor any other company who sells parts for poultry waterers. I'd like to repair the three I have before winter, so that water doesn't escape while I'm filling them.
