One 5/16" or 8 MM O ring for the tube & a teflon ring that fits on the threads. Heat the teflon ring in HOT water prior to trying to install it. If it doesn't fit, or tears up when you install the teflon ring, don't worry. The rubber O ring does all the sealing. Coat the rubber O ring with oil once you have it on the tube.
