Bead Seater Upgrade Kit FAQs
What does the Gaither Bead Seater Upgrade Kit do?

Which bead seater tanks are compatible with the Gaither Bead Seater Upgrade Kit?
This kit is designed to fit most bead seater models with standard 1.5-inch or 2-inch openings. The available options are SKU 12941R for 1.5-inch openings and SKU 12942R for 2-inch openings, so the correct choice depends on the opening size of the tank being upgraded.
Is the Gaither Bead Seater Upgrade Kit hard to install?
Installation is fast and easy. The included directions give you step-by-step directions on how to remove your old valve and replace it with the new upgrade valve.
What replacement parts are available for the Gaither Bead Seater Upgrade Kit?
Replacement support is available for the main wear components commonly associated with bead seater airflow systems.
