Silca 731 Leather Piston Gasket 28mm

Season:2025

Brand:Silca

Code:PU5651

Durable leather piston gaskets designed for Silca pumps.

Since the 1960s, all Silca leather gaskets have come from the same leather converting house in the fashion district of Milan, Italy. For more than five decades, the same supplier has cut these washers from the excess material left over from the production of exotic handbags, Italian luxury car interiors, and high-fashion luggage. A small press is used to trim and pressure-form these leather washers into durable pressure gaskets.

From a purely functional standpoint, inexpensive O-rings are most commonly used in this application, but no O-ring can match the smooth feel and zero-stiction action of a leather gasket. It is common today to find Silca leather gasket pumps used throughout the professional peloton (especially during the spring classics) as O-ring seal pumps struggle with heat and often are unable to seal once the pump barrel is hot from inflating more than a few wheels.
