The Springfield Speaker 12-inch Pro-Grade Rubitex Gasket Kit is designed for speaker repair and restoration. This kit includes gaskets for two 12-inch speakers and a bottle of professional-grade black rubber adhesive.
Rubitex gaskets are engineered from two premium materials: Rubitex and Chip. Rubitex is a black rubberized cork-like material that provides optimal vibration dampen. Żeton is a multi-layer compressed cardboard material, similar to standard speaker gaskets, offering superior strength and bonding capabilities to the speaker frame. The combination of these materials results in a durable and effective speaker gasket.

2. Instrukcja instalacji
This section provides general instructions for installing speaker gaskets. Specific steps may vary depending on your speaker model. Always refer to your speaker's original service manual if available.
2.1 Required Tools and Materials (Not Included, unless specified)
- Small flat-head screwdriver or pry tool
- Cleaning solution (e.g., isopropyl alcohol)
- Czyste ściereczki lub ręczniki papierowe
- Nóż uniwersalny lub żyletka
- Clamps or weights (optional, for securing during drying)
2.2 Przygotowanie
- Odłącz zasilanie: Ensure the speaker is disconnected from all power sources and audio equipment.
- Usuń starą uszczelkę: Carefully remove the old gasket material from the speaker frame. Use a small flat-head screwdriver or pry tool to gently lift and peel away the old material. Be cautious not to damage the speaker cone or surround.
- Czyszczenie powierzchni: Thoroughly clean the speaker frame where the new gasket will be applied. Remove any old adhesive residue, dust, or debris using a cleaning solution and a clean cloth. The surface must be clean and dry for optimal adhesion.
- Test dopasowania: Before applying adhesive, dry-fit the new Rubitex gasket segments onto the speaker frame to ensure proper alignment and fit. The kit includes 4 segments per gasket.
2.3 Gasket Application
- Nałóż klej: Apply a thin, even bead of the included professional-grade black rubber adhesive to the clean surface of the speaker frame where the gasket will sit. Ensure adequate coverage without excessive application.
- Position Gasket Segments: Carefully place the Rubitex gasket segments onto the adhesive, aligning them precisely with the speaker frame's mounting holes. The "Chip" (cardboard) side of the gasket should be facing down towards the speaker frame for optimal bonding.
- Naciśnij i zabezpiecz: Gently press down on the gasket segments to ensure full contact with the adhesive. If necessary, use small clamps or weights to hold the gaskets in place while the adhesive cures.
- Czas utwardzania: Allow the adhesive to cure completely. Refer to the adhesive bottle for specific curing times, typically 24 hours. Avoid moving or disturbing the speaker during this period.

5. Rozwiązywanie Problemów
If you encounter issues after gasket installation, consider the following:
- Słaba przyczepność: If the gasket is not securely attached, it may be due to insufficient cleaning of the surface or inadequate curing time. Ensure surfaces are clean and dry before applying adhesive, and allow full curing.
- Buzzing/Rattling Sound: This could indicate a loose gasket or improper sealing. Re-inspect the gasket for any gaps or areas where it has lifted. Reapply adhesive if necessary.
- Gasket Not Fitting: Ensure you have the correct size gasket for your speaker. This kit is designed for 12-inch speakers with 8 mounting lugs.
