High-seal flat silicone gasket for the BCD's overpressure/dump valve.
The Tecline Silicone Dump Valve Gasket, available on DIR-STORE, is the specific replacement component designed to ensure perfect impermeability of the overpressure and rapid dump valve (OPV) located at the bottom or side of the wing or BCD. As a critical point subject to continuous pressure variations and direct contact with water, an efficient gasket is essential to prevent water leakage into the wing.
Main Features and Benefits:
High-Performance Technical Silicone: Perfectly replaces old black rubber gaskets. Silicone guarantees greater longevity and does not undergo the crystallization or cracking process caused by the combined action of sun, salt, and time.
Effective and Soft Sealing: Thanks to the excellent elastic memory of silicone, the gasket compresses uniformly under the threaded body of the OPV valve. This allows for impeccable air and hydraulic sealing even without overtightening the valve, protecting the plastic threads.
UV and Ozone Resistance: Ideal for divers who frequently dive in the sea or conduct long training sessions in the pool, thanks to its total chemical inertness to chlorine and salinity.
