Reinstall the Knurled-Rubber Grip Ring
The final assembly step for the turret assembly is to
reinstall the black knurled-rubber grip ring around the
outer perimeter of the revolving turret and secure it in
place with a suitable color-matching adhesive. Black
silicone RTV is a good choice of adhesive here, since it
will bond well with the metal of the revolving turret as
well as to the black knurled-rubber grip ring.
Additionally, any of the inevitable squeeze-out that is
not removed will not be visible. Apply two dabs of black
silicone RTV (item 7 of
perimeter of the revolving turret, spaced approximately
180° apart (see
Figure
44).

not stretch or damage the grip ring (see
