Mirro Pressure Cooker Gasket Replacement

The Mirro Pressure Cooker Gasket features a secure pressurized seal during cooking, which is essential for replacing the sealing ring when it becomes deformed, shrunken, or experiences steam leaks during pressurization. The gasket is designed to fit a variety of Mirro pressure cooker models, including the M-0312, M-0406, M-0416, M-0512, M-0522, M-0526, and M-0622, among others.

The diameter of the gasket is approximately 12.6 inches, though the exact measurements may vary slightly due to the gasket's ability to stretch or shrink to fit specific lids. To ensure compatibility, it is recommended to measure the old gasket and pressure cooker pot before purchasing.

The Mirro Canner Gasket is compatible with Mirro pressure cookers ranging from 12 to 22 quarts, and it also fits many discontinued models. This makes it a versatile option for those with older pressure cookers.

Proper maintenance of the gasket is essential for its longevity and performance. After each use, the gasket should be removed, washed in hot, soapy water, rinsed, and dried before being slipped back into place. Cleaning the sealing ring groove thoroughly before reinstallation is also recommended to ensure a secure fit.

The installation process is straightforward. Soaking the gasket in warm water for 10 minutes before installation can increase its pliability, making it easier to insert and press firmly into the groove. This simple yet effective step helps to ensure a proper seal and prevent any potential leaks.

It is important to note that if your Mirro pressure cooker was made before January 1983, you will need the 3440 gasket model instead.

Overall, the Mirro Pressure Cooker Gasket is a high-quality, durable, and efficient sealing solution for your pressure cooking needs. Its food-grade silicone construction, lightweight design, and resistance to wear, high temperatures, and twisting make it a reliable choice for maintaining the optimal performance of your Mirro pressure cooker.
