Overview
This spare gasket is intended for maintaining the seal in a Temper Assist Valve cap when the original rubber gasket is lost, shrinks, or expands with changing temperature and humidity. It provides a practical replacement option for keeping the cap functioning as intended during routine gear upkeep. The included PSA adhesive backing is designed for a permanent replacement, while the original gasket can be retained as an extra spare in a repair kit. Sold individually, it is a simple add-on for hunters and paddlers who want a backup on hand for field repairs.
