Yes - fat o-rings will work nicely. Get some 3/16 in. thick by whatever size fits snugly inside the rim.

That’s your best bet, unless you have something lying around your house.

The hardware store in my town closed because the owner died, I never went for yoyo parts, I didn’t yoyo then, and now when I need something the closest is 20-25 mins away. True Value Laniers Hardware. It’s HUGE.
