Notice to Buyer:
Valve Replacement work will be related to the thread of the air valve when you want to screw it in. Since the inner part cannot be simply replaced, so the new replacement valve needs to match the old valve seat (thread) inside the chamber. No one want to cut the chamber to replace the whole valve including the inside part. So please make sure your boat is a Seamax boat or valve sample model before purchase. otherwise you can always chat with us with your old valve parts picture to verify.
If your boat is a Seamax boat, best to provide your detail boat model & HIN and even a valve picture, so it will help us to located a right version air valve for you. If your boat is not a Seamax boat, detail photo of your boat's air valve will help. If we don't have the same parts for you, we will let you know or order can be full refund before shipped.
