40X40 Plate and Frame Filter Replacement Parts

[Vaultdweller]

Hey there,
I recently purchased a used 40X40 plate and frame filter from another brewery via the probrewer classifieds. During filtration, I noticed that there was a steady leak coming from the front of the filter, more so than expected drippings. Upon examination I discovered that the end plate had a crack running up through the gasket. Does anybody know where I can purchase a new 40X40 noryl or even stainless endplate? The only place that I could find was MoreBeer, and they list it as currently being out of stock. Thanks in advance.

I've had dealings with Cellartek up in BC. My Spadoni Kappa4 40x40 needed a new sight glass and a bunch of replacement gaskets. Called them up and they were able to find one for me in no time. http://www.cellartek.com/ Of you can get parts from Stpats if you're willing to go that route http://stpats.com/index.htm

We have a Velo 40x40 filter that I have been able to source parts for from Scott Laboratories in Petaluma, CA - www.scottlab.com .

Depending on the brand, Brewerygaskets.com have been very helpful and able to get parts.

I would stay away from ST Pats of Texas. GW Kent might have them too but many brewers have the same opinion of them.
