KOMOS Replacement Nylon Washer for CO2 Regulators
The KOMOS Replacement Nylon Washer is a small sealing part for compatible KOMOS CO2 regulators. It helps form an airtight seal between the regulator and the gas cylinder, which makes it a useful spare for kegerators, draft systems, and CO2 serving setups.
Keep a spare washer on hand if you disconnect tanks often, swap regulators, or run a draft setup where a failed seal can interrupt service. KOMOS notes that these washers can wear down over time and need replacement, so checking the washer should be part of routine regulator service.
When to Replace It
- Tank changes: inspect the washer when moving a regulator to a different CO2 cylinder.
- Leak checks: replace it if the regulator-to-cylinder connection will not hold a seal.
- Visible wear: do not reuse a washer that is cracked, crushed, cut, or missing.
- Spare-part kit: a low-cost part worth keeping with regulator tools and draft service supplies.
Gas Safety Notes
After replacing the washer or reconnecting a regulator, pressurize the system carefully and check the connection with a proper leak-detection method. Never ignore a gas leak on a pressurized draft system. If the washer does not fit the connection correctly, stop and confirm regulator compatibility before tightening further.
