Help needed identifying a fitting
Vessel Boréal, made in France. Source of fittings unknown.


These bronze valves have a paper-like compression washer. I am looking for the name (e.g. British Pipe Fitting) so I can order spare washers.



I have never seen this style in the USA. The washer seems to be 18 mm OD, 12 mm ID, 2 mm thick but it could be imperial as well.


Thanks in advance.

GordMay, I had looked in McMaster but there were too many choices. Thanks.
