GASKET REPLACEMENT SERVICE, Kokatat WRIST ***EACH*** (parts & labor)
Description
Send your KOKATAT brand dry suit or dry top to K.A. for fast, professional gasket repair. K.A. will replace your over stretched, worn out, cracked, gummy or torn gaskets with factory original Kokatat brand gaskets. We'll give your other gaskets a free inspection and contact you if we feel it is time to replace them.
- 2009 and newer dry wear we install Kokatat Neck gaskets the same way Kokatat does with a heat activated adhesive system and the tools that Kokatat uses to weld the gaskets on (no extra layers of old gaskets and no worries about the gasket pulling off).
- 2008 and older Kokatat dry suits and tops the original gaskets were glued on with Aquaseal, and the standard repair is to cut all but the glued portion of the old one off and glue the new gasket on top of the rim of the old one with Aquaseal (two layers of latex when done). For these items we generally use the standard repair unless the old gasket's flange is in too poor a condition in which case at our discretion we may remove it completely and Aquaseal to the fabric.
- For gasket replacement on all other brands of watersport dry-wear, go back to "Dry Suits/Gaskets" and select the type of gasket service you need (neck, wrist, etc.) from the item that begins with "GASKET REPLACEMENT SERVICE Non-Kokatat....".
We strive to complete the gasket repair in one week after your garment arrives, and we'll put it into shipping the first business day after service is completed. If you live on the east coast or mid-west, you can expedite the return shipping for this order with our UPS 3-Day Shipping Option at check-out and by sending it to us with expedited shipping. The shipping you pay for at our check out is for us to return your item to you after servicing it.
Purchasing Instructions

Note: If you combine the purchase of other items with this service order, we will hold all items for shipment together with your repaired dry suit/dry top after it has been serviced. To have other items shipped separately, place a separate order for your repairs.

If your original gasket was too tight or too loose enter this info along with your wrist measurement in the "Comments" box when going through the check-out -- then we can pick the best size for you. To measure your wrist circumference, lightly wrap a measuring tape or string around slimmest part of wrist -- don't pull tight.
