Ether Cylinders

Dirt and Moisture Seal

KBi Ether Cylinders have a unique O-Ring seal that protects the valve from accumulating dirt and moisture that would otherwise cause it to become clogged and nonfunctional. Additionally, the O-Ring seal provides easier installation of a new ether cylinder by preventing the old one from "welding" to the valve.

Protective Cap & Valve Gasket

KBi Ether Cylinders also come with a protective cap and replacement valve gasket. The protective cap guards the cylinder threads to avoid damage and dirt entering during storage or shipping. The valve gasket ensures a proper seal and keeps starting fluid (ether) from leaking when the ether cylinder is threaded onto a non-NVT valve. It's important to always use the new valve gasket when replacing ether cylinders.

Note: NVT valves do not use a valve gasket, so the removable valve gasket should not be installed when replacing NVT ether cylinders.
