Need help with a water union gasket....sizing?
emt1581:
I've got one of the inflatable Saluspas, the Paris model. I the gasket for the water union is shredded. I'm seeing it may not be a standard sizing. Internally it's ~1.5" and externally it's ~1.75" in diameter.
Any idea what the specific part/sizing is and maybe where I can find it?
I'm guessing I can order one from Bestway (parent company) but they'll charge me $40-$50. I'd like to see if I can find a better one, maybe silicone, aftermarket.
Thanks!!

One of your local pool/spa stores will likely have one for a ton less. Use silicone based lubricant to extend it's life.

Stopped into the local pool/spa shop. Got some sideways looks and was told those parts for the inflatables are really brand-specific and they had nothing remotely similar.
Silicone-based lube....I have cases of Uberlube which is a high quality silicone lube, but it's meant for sex. Will that work? Silicone is silicone...no?
Thanks
