There’s no need to suffer silently with a too-tight neck gasket. With a few simple tools, you can trim it yourself.
Tools:
- Single-edge razor
- Plastic tub, 4″ to 5″ in diameter (a sherbet or yogurt container works well)
Technique:
Slip the gasket over the tub. With a steady hand, cut around the gasket with the razor, staying on one line. All Kokatat neck gaskets come with concentric lines you can use as a guide; start by removing just one or two (we both trim two). Avoid creating nicks where the gasket can tear.
Here’s a short video demonstrating the process:
When you’re done, 303 your neck and wrist gaskets to make them more pliable and prolong their life.
