Great bargain Alex, I'm surprised it hasn't been snapped up instantly.

By the way, I've had great success improvising back rubbers using this, 5mm x 15mm size, cut down slightly narrower, and with the mating ends cut on the angle (as one does with diaphragm gaskets): https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174484627244 ... 1438.l2649
