Looking for these washers. Hard to find part?
They are the tiny washers under the aluminum barrel piece on the divider of the in and out lane on some games. Specifically this is Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Does anybody know where to find them?

Not sure on the exact size, but one option would be a washer assortment.
I bet one that will work is included.
Grand total of $5.99, plus tax.

Look for #4 flat washers. Then in the product details look at the diameter measurement, and see if that matches what you have. If not, go up or down a size (ie, #3 or #5) until you find a match.

Thanks for the info. Although I think they are much smaller than that.

Those are pretty weird. What I would do is find some that are the same width and drill them out to the inside width.

No, those size washers are readily available. I had to find them a while back. I just don't recall what the exact size was at this point.

I’ll try that. Thanks!

I recall reading about those in a thread somewhere here on pinside, think it was in the white water club. The guy couldn't find them anywhere to buy as parts and ended up buying some long, chromed metal tubing that he cut/sawed off into correct length and used with good results.

I think the OP was looking for the washer that go under the tubes, rather than the tubes themselves. Oh, also, if it's not a #2, or #4, it could be a 3/16.

I also found the tube posts a while back. I'll have to dig through my past orders to find the vendor and part number.

[edit]: It's a spacer. Here it is: https://www.boltdepot.com/Product-Details.aspx?product=25944

So, since that's a #4 spacer, the washer the OP is looking for is also likely a #4 flat washer.

Thanks for all the info. I ordered a bag of 100. We’ll see if they’ll work!
