Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: May 2009 Posts: 107 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: May 2009 Posts: 107 | I'm trying to find the sizes of the single barrel base plate gaskets. I am not sure of the different number sizes listed. i also hear there is a number assotiated with them? Ex. a 2 may be 2 11/16ths? Does anyone have a chart or know what the sizes are for the 216, 235, and 261? Any assistance would be appreciated.

I read someplace where the 216 has a base size of 2 and the 235 is a size 3? Or as I remember it anyway.
