Dimensions for 3-cup Gaskets Sep 05, 2009
By William Pollock I guessed that the 3-cup version was what I needed for our 4-cup stainless steel Bialetti pot, and luckily I was right. The gasket's outer diameter is 2.5 inches, and the ring is 0.25 inches wide.
It is the real deal, Bialetti product - a package of 3 gaskets plus a replacement filter. A great deal at this price.
This came from J&R, and arrived in only a couple days with standard shipping. I'm totally, completely satisfied!

You MUST read this before to buy Bialetti's parts! Aug 27, 2011
By Alex

I bought 3 new gaskets to replace the one in my Bialetti's 1 cup coffee maker. As many here, I ended up buying the wrong ones :-( No biggy, since I own different Bialettis in different sizes, but definitely a nuisance. In order to avoid my mistake, I suggest you to go to the online Bialetti's store (Bialetti.com). In the 'replacement parts' section, you'll find a very useful tool to determine which gaskets you need, based on some measurements. Also it seems the prices are a little lower, but I'll leave this judgment to you...

A suggestion Apr 05, 2011
By Randall Thomas To those listing these gaskets, please put this link on all of your listings to prevent us from ordering the wrong size: […]
Nowhere on these makers is there a # cup measure so we're guessing. I only found this link after the fact. Now I have to reorder and have an opened pack of wrong size gaskets.

Sizing!! Nov 15, 2011
By Aaron

I'd give 5 stars since the current gasket has lasted forever but since Bialetti and amazon both are reluctant to provide sizing, I'm knocking it a star. I replaced mine since I now have to crank the pieces together firm enough I sometimes can't get it loose to prevent leaks.
As far as sizing, if a person were to go to espressoparts, they would find that the: ---3 cup gasket has measurements of: Outside Diameter: 64.75mm (2.54 in.); Inside Diameter: 50mm (1.96 in.); Thickness: 2.6mm (.102 in.) - that's the vertical thickness and not the width of the gasket
So, if you're under the 3, it's probably a 1, if you're between the 3 and 6, I guess you maybe have a 4 cup. The measurements for coffee are all silly anyway as they use a 4-6oz as a cup in order to appear to increase the volume of their maker. -Also, my 3 cup maker takes almost exactly 1/2 cup (118ml) of water to reach bottom of the safety valve. So, in Bialetti math, we can assume that they think around 40ml is an espresso cup. Hopefully that helps.

Fits IKEA Moka Pot Aug 24, 2011
By Devwalla I've had an IKEA Moka pot for years and the two gaskets it came with finally wore completely out. A visit to IKEA for the allegedly available replacement gaskets was futile - no stores actually carry them it seems - so I took a chance that these seals would fit my 3 cup IKEA model. They are the tiniest bit loose, not enough to keep the pot from making a seal, and I'm thrilled to have found a source for these. I think my IKEA pot was $12 when I bought it and although that's cheap, I hated the idea of tossing it and getting a new one just for lack of a new gasket.
