Can you buy replacement gaskets for floor pumps?
Quote | Reply
The one in my pump is torn (the rubber part that snugs around the presta valve stem) and the LBS says it's not available independant of a new pump, and that I just need a new to buy a new pump. I'm inclined to call BS, but I can't seem to find one online for purchase.

Little help here, please?

If you have a Silca - yes. If not...probably no.

Depends on the pump. Silca is the best, you can replace just about everything on one of them. For others, you can get replacement gaskets and hoses for Blackburns, Topeak, and some others. The real cheapie pumps, probably not.

If you can't find replacement gaskets (I finally stopped being able to find replacement gaskets fro my 16yr old Zefal Husky), just replace the pump head. Silca sells them independently, as does Joe Blow and a few other companies.

What kind of pump?

As you've heard parts are easy to find for Silca. They are also available for Zefal, but they have to come from France. I found my new Zefal hose with a Google search. Try it for yours.

Thanks for the link, the pump is a Summit brand (not on the bikeparts.com list) and has both a detachable head and removable rubber gasket. I suppose I could just buy a new head, assuming they are universal in attaching to the tube (small plastic nipple that fits into tubing, screw-on plastic coupling).

If you are just going to get the head - I suggest the Silca brass - you can easily put a "crack pipe" into it if you have H3 or a Disk too.
