BLOLACDZ Pressure Cooker Sealing Ring

This sealing ring is designed specifically for 6-quart Presto pressure cookers and has a diameter of 9.5 inches. It is intended to replace part numbers 09904 and 50295, so check your original manual or the underside of your cooker's lid to confirm these numbers match.

The overpressure plug is a critical safety component that releases steam if the primary vent pipe becomes blocked. Replacing this plug along with your sealing ring ensures your pressure cooker maintains its safety standards and prevents dangerous pressure buildup.

You should generally replace your sealing ring every 12 to 18 months, or sooner if you notice steam leaking from the sides of the lid during operation. If the rubber feels brittle, cracked, or has lost its elasticity, it is time for a replacement to ensure consistent cooking performance.

Installation is straightforward, but ensure the ring is seated evenly around the entire circumference of the lid without any twists or gaps. After installing, it is helpful to run a finger around the ring to confirm it is securely tucked into the groove before locking the lid onto the pot.

No, this sealing ring is specifically engineered for Presto brand 6-quart models. Using it with a different brand or size may result in an improper seal, which can prevent the cooker from reaching the necessary pressure or create a safety hazard.
