Zodiac Semi-Recessed Valve
I need some help.
I have an older Zodiac that uses these semi-recessed valves. The originals used a round rubber section (looked like a T) that prevented the air from leaking out.
Over times these have started to go so I relaxed them, but Zodiac doesn’t appear to make them anymore. Instead they make a Z60055 valve. These LEAK like crazy!!! If I go out fishing for longer than an hour I need to get to shore as the pontoon will be nearly flat!!!
I’ve ordered different ones from different suppliers thinking I just had a bad batch but they’re all leaking!!! I’ve replaced the valve cap and round washer thinking that might help but no luck!
Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do??? It’s to the point that the boat just isn’t usable anymore now and that’s just sad.
Here’s a pic of the Z60055: https://www.inflatableboats.net/zodiac-parts-semi-recessed-valve-insert-z60055/
