Made of strong non-hygroscopic POM: Push-Push valves are dimensionally stable because they do not absorb humidity, while valves made in Nylon may absorb water, causing them to deform and to leak! (AB Part #AB85044-0004)
- Designed with rounded low profile and with the smallest overall dimensions.
- The thick valve cage protects the internal components from impacts.
- Double silicone seal on the poppet and on the cap.
- Push-Push Valves do not leak even without the cap inserted!
There are 6 grooves around the perimeter of the spring loaded pin and the top of the cap is shaped like a brick or a rectangle. The valve wrench is in related products below.
Instructions:
Deflate the boat. While holding the back of the existing valve, use the wrench to twist the internal part of the valve out, being careful not to let go of the back of the valve as it may fall into the boat. Twist the new valve in using the wrench. The housing on the new valve is unnecessary for this application and can be stored or thrown out.
