Pressure Cooker Over-Pressure Plug (Quantity 666)

The overpressure plug on Presto pressure cookers and canners built after 1977 automatically releases steam if the vent pipe becomes clogged and excess pressure cannot be released normally. This safety feature is designed to prevent dangerous situations that could arise from a buildup of excessive pressure within the device. By automatically relieving the pressure, the overpressure plug helps to ensure the safe operation of the pressure cooker or canner, even in the event of a blockage in the vent system. This provides an important safeguard for users, as it can help to avoid potentially hazardous scenarios that could otherwise occur if the pressure were allowed to continue building up without a means of escape. The inclusion of this feature in Presto pressure cookers and canners manufactured after 1977 demonstrates the company's commitment to prioritizing the safety and well-being of their customers.
