Heavy Duty Rubber Stoppers Injection Ports Where to get them?

I have found the blue ones and used them for the lc's but they tend to break down and are thin so they tend to stay open after removing the needle. Anyone know where to get some heavy duty ones. Maybe the red one that agar had? I have searched

I recently bought a bunch from my local surplus store. They are much thicker than the blue ones, although they arent made specifically for injection they work just the same. They're basically just thick black rubber stoppers. I'm not sure what their original purpose was but they seem to work great so far. I picked them up for 15 cents a piece. So yea, check the local surplus store if you have one, or find a surplus store online that carries something similar.

also, i could be mistaken but i think the tops used on agar's lids are just vacutainer caps, you can pick up a shit ton of vacutainers from amazon for pretty cheap. i was actually thinking about doing that before i found the ones at the surplus store.

What size needle you using there Tahoe? I picked up a bunch of 22 guage needles with syringes from Walgreens. Told the pharmacist I use them to inject worms with stinky oils when I am fishing. Which is something I actually do, so I could answer any little questions she had in small talk as she was ringing me up.

Agar used several different types of injection ports over the years...
he was using the tops off the vacutainers(red type) last I knew...
and he was getting them off Ebay.
be careful though...
there are several different sizes of Vacutainers.
you want the 10 ml size.

Why? I used these several times now and they have worked fine. They were pretty cheap and readily available.
