A pair of Dowty type sealable washers to fit 1/4 BSP Petrol Taps.  Price is for a pair of washers

These washers are a modern alternative to red fibre or copper washers for those petrol taps with 1/4BSP threads going into the petrol tank - of the type used on most Norton OHV, SV, Twins and CS1 models, as well as many other British motorcycles.

Note: in the photo on the left is a genuine Enotts style petrol tap as fitted to the Left side of many OHV/SV tanks of the 1940's.  This is identifiable because of the union at the base of the tap - which would have held an extension banjo to take fuel over to the other (drive side) fuel tap - which would have then fed the carburettor.  A domed nut was then used at the bottom, under the banjo fitting (rather than a fuel pipe to the carburettor, as on the drive side).  These taps are now quite rare - sorry, this one is not for sale.

These washers are not of the type used with the large 'Sump' type SOHC petrol tap - although we do sell the special red fibre washer for those taps - it being Item 0383
