Restore Your EGG's Seal. Restore Your Temperature Control.
The heat sealing gasket material installed on a Big Green Egg is designed to last for years under normal operating conditions. However, if the felt gasket shows signs of excessive wear or deterioration, it can easily be replaced using the new Big Green Egg High Performance Gasket Kit.
Withstands extreme heat up to 625°F/330°C.
Why your gasket matters:
The gasket is what creates the seal between your EGG's dome and base. That seal is what makes kamado cooking work — it's how you control airflow, maintain temperature, and achieve those long, steady cooks. A worn gasket means air leaks, temperature swings, and wasted charcoal.
Signs you need a new gasket:
- Visible gaps or compressed areas in the felt
- Difficulty maintaining steady temperatures
- EGG runs hotter than it should with vents closed
- Smoke escaping from the dome/base junction
- Gasket is hard, brittle, or falling apart
- Charcoal consumption seems higher than normal

What's in the kit:
The High Performance Gasket Kit includes everything you need to replace the gasket on your EGG — the gasket material itself plus any adhesive or installation materials required.
Installation overview:
- Remove the old gasket material completely
- Clean the gasket surfaces on dome and base
- Apply new gasket material according to instructions
- Allow adhesive to cure before use
- Close dome gently on first use to seat gasket
The temperature control difference:
A fresh gasket transforms how your EGG performs. Temperatures stabilize faster, hold steadier, and respond better to vent adjustments. If your EGG has been running hot or eating through charcoal, a new gasket often solves the problem.
Pro tips:
- Replace the gasket before it fails completely
- Clean surfaces thoroughly for best adhesion
- Don't over-tighten the dome — let the gasket do its job
- A proper seal means lower charcoal consumption
- This is one of the most impactful maintenance items for your EGG
