Kokatat Ankle Gasket
Kokatat Ankle Gasket
This ankle gasket is the official factory replacement ankle seal for all Kokatat brand dry suits, dry bibs, and dry pants with latex ankle gaskets. Illustrated how-to instructions are included. Kokatat ankle gaskets will work on most other brands of drysuits and dry pants, however, we also offer Universal Ankle Gaskets which fit better on other brands of dry-wear, are available in a wider range of sizes, and cost less.

To install these gaskets yourself, we recommend using AquaSeal FD Adhesive (sold separately and we only ship it via UPS Ground due to HazMat regulations, so you may want to buy it at your local sporting goods shop e.g. Dicks or Bass Pro or SCUBA dive shop). A 1oz tube of AquaSeal Adhesive is sufficient for replacing all gaskets on at least one suit. We highly recommend buying our Ankle Gasket Replacement Tool to make it easy to do a professional quality job when installing new ankle gaskets. These tools are sold separately, use the "Continue Shopping" button to find them. See Ankle Gasket/Latex Sock Replacement Tool
Kokatat latex ankle gaskets only come in one size. However, the gaskets are tapered, and you can loosen the fit of them by trimming material off the end. There is a cutting guide ring molded into the end of the gasket about 1/4" from the end to facilitate trimming in a straight line. To make a straight cut, just cut parallel to this line. Trimming 1/4" off the gasket will make it significantly looser.
Note: If the original Kokatat ankle gaskets didn't fit your lower leg tightly enough, try our Universal Ankle Gaskets which are available in two sizes and fit Kokatat brand drysuits, dry pants, and bibs.
Note Kokatat ankle gaskets are sold individually. If you need a pair, set the quantity to 2.
