FINALLY! The 'missing' SILCA gasket is back in production. There are at least 3 original brass chucks that use this gasket as well as the Impero frame pump. However, none of them were as widely sold as the Presta Only chuck and we had been unable to find original 323 gaskets that were unused and in near original condition to assess performance, so the team at SILCA had to completely redesign and optimize this part from scratch.
This modern 323 gasket has been developed using the same high-tech fully synthetic elastomer used on our modern 242 gasket on the SuperPista ultimate. We find that this material allows for greater valve holding power, greater sealing and significantly improved life expectancy. New 2-stage Seal Design improves high pressure performance and also makes it unnecessary to press the chuck on as far as the original design required. With a 323 gasket your classic SILCA pump will literally perform BETTER than new!
If you need Schrader compatibility we recommend the Thread-On Schrader Chuck with 17-4 Presta Chuck as a solution. This isn't the least expensive option, but both chucks are all metal and will last an eternity.
Known compatibility: Art.24.4, Art.84 & Art.323, SILCA Impero frame pump heads

Product:
Silca Elastomer Seal for Reversible Brass Chuck and Silca Impero Head #323
Ownership: two months
Tech Knowledge: somewhat high
Pros
Product fits old style silca pump head. Old style black rubber seal no longer available. Seals connection of pump head to presta fitting with no leaks. Allows inflation of tire/tube to maximum pressure. Renewed pump and allowed me to keep using instead of replacing.
Cons
A little tricky to get used to at first, almost forms a click/like connection to presta fitting.
Other Thoughts
Glad someone finally made a replacement part for Silca pump head!
