Product Information

The Advanced Elements double action pump with gauge comes with a spring valve adaptor attachment. This screws onto the military valve and holds the chamber “open” so you can get real time pressure readings. The adaptor is designed to work with just the Advanced Elements military valves. A Boston valve could not lose air regularly, but if your valve has a problem, it could leak air, and it might be prudent to create a tight seal that keeps the air in the boat. You could unscrew the valve to inspect it to ensure that it is not dusty, and there are not any threads that could be getting in the way of the valve. You want to do this carefully. Make sure you have a firm hold on your middle piece as you unscrew. If not, the air pressure might shoot this piece far away. How do You Install a Boston Valve?

It has three key parts. The first one, which is the base and is attached to the inflatable boat, the middle part, and a cap that makes the third. It’s really not much more complicated than that. Other times, however, the thread gets damaged because of this debris. So even when you clean it out, it still leaks. If this happens, the best thing you can do is replace your Boston valve. How do You Replace a Boston Valve?

But if you have several paddle boards–maybe one for each family member– you might be wondering if you’ll have to buy a pump for each one, or can you get one pump for all of them?

You want zero water to enter the hole. That’s why it’s a good idea to add another layer of fabric for more protection. While the Leafield valve is not very common in inflatable paddle boards, it has been around for quite some time and its quality is unmatched. You’ll find the Leafield valve in some inflatable kayaks, river rafts, paddle boards, and other inflatables. Next, screw on the valve body onto the retaining ring – make sure it is not cross-threaded, and it is tightly in place. There are two standard Boston Valve sizes, a small and a normal one. The standard valve could be about 4cm on its diameter, while the smaller one could be less than 4cm. Your Boston valve would fit into the hole of your inflatable boat, bed, and any other item as it is standardized like most valves in the market. You will, therefore, not get one which is too small or too big for the pumping opening. The Bottom Line If you can’t find the Boston valve specific to your boat, you should measure the diameter and length of the threaded part.The middle segment could be screwed into the base, and it acts as the seal for the hole. When the middle area is tightly screwed, it could prevent air from seeping out of the inflatable item.

If your kayak has more than one Boston valve of the same size, you can swap them and see if it’s a valve problem or maybe a leak in your boat. Can you replace a Boston valve? If you believe you have a leak at the valve location, run a soapy sponge around the valve to pinpoint the leak – bubbles will be visible. Most of the time, your inflatable boat will arrive with a Boston valve already installed. Nevertheless, knowing how to install one is a great skill to have. It will come in handy if you want to replace your old valves, or if you are building something inflatable. The good news is that Boston valves also make it super easy to deflate your boat. All you have to do is to unscrew the middle piece. When you do this, you’ll open the hole in the base and let out all the air. The best thing to do is to replace it. Unfortunately, Boston valves differ slightly from brand to brand. There is no universal size for all the parts.

Sevylor Easy Inflation Manometer Pressure Gauge

To use it, you insert the gauge into the valve, where it will measure the pressure. Note that the pins might not be long enough to push open the diaphragm and let air in.
