Nylon Washer

BULLDOG · Nov 27, 2002

I have 5 total E1e & E2e Surefires and I read that if you take the clip off you should get the nylon washer (part# 14872-1) so that fills the void where the clip use to be so the washer does not pop out. SF customer service is great the lady sent me 5 of them for free. So is it as easy to install that you just put it on first, then the o-ring, then the KL1 head or regular head?

Yup. Nothing could be easier to install.

You actually need those washers to make the light waterproof WITH the clip in place. There is still a void behind the clip bend where the O-ring can fall.

So will it be waterproof with the clip not on with the washer? With the clip it needs the washer to be waterproof, than why didn't SF make and distribute them with the washer if they knew that?

What washers are you guys talking about? There are no washers on any of my E1E's or E2E's.

I have never seen this washer on my E1e or E2eCJ

it was never there.

Exactly, they aren't there, you have to get them from SF. They will make the light waterproof. The part number is 14872-1. SF sent me 5 for free. Can't beat that customer service.

Got mine free from Surefire also. Installed it with no problem. Don' understand why it wasn't included in the first place.

Any pics of the washer installed on an E2E?

I will be calling after the holidays.
