Hi,
Hoping to replace the rubber tyre on a Philips N4407 "in between wheel", the rubber has turned to goo as it does. note this is for the take up spool drive wheel, not the pinch roller.

Several historic posts mention this.

The rubber seems to be available from Germany for ~£15 which is quite costly for what it is.

Can anyone help with the outside diameter of the rubber when it is fitted on the wheel? I will try to source some rubber tubing of the right size

Thanks
