DUROMATIC®/DUROTHERM® Sicherheitsstift mit Feder Ø 45 mm

The safety spring on this 45 mm lid fits my pressure cooker perfectly and locks with a reassuring click, which I appreciate after years of fiddly clamps. It’s solidly built and handles steam pressure without any wobble, so I feel way more confident doing big batch cooking now.

I was a bit skeptical about the 45 mm size, but it fits perfectly on my existing pressure cooker lid and the pin moves smoothly now. The spring action is much firmer than my old one, which gives me better control during cooking.

The spring-loaded pin is surprisingly sturdy for such a small part—it clicks into place with a satisfying firmness every time. I’ve used it on my Kuhn Rikon pan lids for a few weeks now, and it hasn’t loosened a bit. Exactly what you’d expect from Swiss-made hardware.
