Rebuilding the Rolmonica just got much easier.

There is absolutely no reason for you to continue using 70 year old gaskets on your Rolmonica. Unless you have unlimited lung capacity, you will wear out playing it. It will be leaking all over. Besides gaskets, the other main reason for it being so leaky is the reed flaps. Make your Rolmonica play like new with very little work.

I had a die made to make replacement gaskets for the Rolmonica out of coroprene or cork/neoprene gasket material much like the original. I also have a roll of specially made rubber tubing to exactly duplicate the door gasket. I am offering a complete "gaskets only" set for the bakelite enclosed Rolmonica for $12.00. For this you get not one but two 1/16" thick tracker bar gaskets along with two of the rectangular gaskets, as well as the white natural gum rubber tube gasket that glues all around the bakelite door.

In back of the metal tracker bar is the gasket with the holes, and the harmonica is behind that. This gasket is sometimes 1/16" thick and sometimes 1/8" thick so I send two of them. For the thick gasket glue the two together.

The back side of the metal tracker bar has a rectangular gasket that seals around the back of the harmonica. I will send two of these just in case that gasket is also thicker.

The white gum rubber tubing gasket is identical to the original. You get well more than is needed. Just clean off the old rubber and glue the new one on in one long piece with burned shellac or plastic glue (Tacky glue).  Splice the ends together just like the original.

Or just send me a whole $20.00 and I will send you the gaskets above plus the flap valve strips to rebuild the two brass reed frames. I will send you more than you need so you can mess up or drop a few and still get the job done. Once again, they are glued on with burned shellac or Aleens Tacky Glue. These I have to make up for each job.  I usually keep several made up now.

The metal Rolmonica unit which is later and painted green or brown, also uses the tracker bar gasket but does not need the tubing gasket since there is no door to pressurize. That one also needs the flap valves as well.

I only sell one set which will rebuild any of the Rolmonicas I have seen. I have know of the larger version but that one is rather rare. My gaskets are not made for that one.

Gaskets only---$12.00

Gaskets and Flap valves-- $20.00

Natural gum rubber is known to last over 50 years but it won't last forever.
