Upgraded Pressure Cooker Gasket for Mirro Models

The Mirro Pressure Cooker Gasket is designed to fit seamlessly into the cover of a pressure canner or cooker, creating a secure pressurized seal during the cooking process. This gasket is intended to replace the existing sealing ring when it has become deformed, shrunken, or is experiencing steam leaks during pressurization.

To maintain the gasket's performance, it is recommended to remove it from the pressure cooker after each use, wash it in hot, soapy water, rinse and dry it, and then slip it back into place. This simple cleaning process will ensure the gasket remains in optimal condition for the next use.

The Mirro Pressure Cooker Gasket is compatible with a variety of Mirro pressure cooker models, including the M-0312, M-0312-35, M-0406, M-0416, M-0512, M-0512-11, M-0522, M-0522-11, M-0526, M-0526-11, M-0528, and M-0622. The gasket has an approximate diameter of 12.6 inches, though it's important to note that the actual dimensions may vary slightly due to the potential for stretching or shrinking to fit specific lids.

To ensure compatibility, users are advised to measure their old gasket and pressure cooker pot to confirm the fit. The Mirro Pressure Cooker Gasket is suitable for use with Mirro pressure cookers in 12-quart, 16-quart, and 22-quart capacities, and it is also compatible with many discontinued models.

The installation process is relatively straightforward. Before inserting the gasket, it's recommended to soak it in warm water for 10 minutes to increase its pliability. Once the gasket is pliable, thoroughly clean the sealing ring groove and then firmly press the gasket into the groove.

Please note that if your Mirro pressure cooker was manufactured before January 1983, you will need the 3440 gasket instead of the S-9882 Pressure Cooker Gasket. This is an important consideration to ensure the proper fit and function of your pressure cooker.

The Mirro Pressure Cooker Gasket is made from high-quality, durable, and food-grade silicone material. It is lightweight, wear-resistant, and can withstand high temperatures, making it an efficient and long-lasting sealing solution for your pressure cooking needs. Additionally, the gasket can be easily cleaned in the dishwasher or left to air dry on a drying rack.
