You may well find it difficult to source the flat seals used in Crusader Kegs. BrewUK are especially unhelpful. You could try these o rings https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/30pcs-Black- ... 2aa4539ebd May work and cheap enough. If you do find the proper flat seals please post back.!

I too asked several suppliers for sankey keg o rings with no luck. I will keep trying though and share details if I find anything!

Following with interest, I have quite a collection of 20L Sankeys now. Whilst the seals are well made and have already lasted years there will come a point where something wears out!
Cheers and gone,

These any good?:

10PCS EPDM D-type O-RING FOR SANKEY KEG SPEARr,D-type keg valve o ring sanke stainless beer keg spear rubber
https://a.aliexpress.com/_vtzhlr

Or:

€ 0,74 | Replacement seal of D -Type spear
https://a.aliexpress.com/_vLDB6v

It looks as if they are universal for the different spear types according to their Australian website:

I think the D and S type spears have the same thread, that would presume that the o rings would be identical.

I’ve ordered some in the hope they fit the S type, thanks for sharing. Some good stuff on kegland’s store, well worth a look
Cheers and gone,
