Product Detail
Gravity tank-to-bowl gaskets, hardware, and kits are essential for new toilet installations or replacing worn parts. Gaskets, made of rubber or plastic, create a tight water seal at the tank-to-bowl connection. Over time, they may wear out and need replacement if they start leaking. Hardware components like nuts, bolts, and washers connect the tank to the bowl and should be replaced if they crack, corrode, or don't fit properly. These repair parts fix leaks and restore proper flushing in gravity-flush toilets, saving you the cost of a full replacement. They're perfect for homes, apartments, hotel rooms, and low-traffic areas with 20 - 30 flushes per day. Signs of a tank in need of repair include leaking, constant running, and flushing issues.
Using these American Standard toilet parts is straightforward. First, turn off the water supply to the toilet. Then, remove the old gasket and hardware from the tank-to-bowl connection. Place the new gasket in position and secure it with the provided hardware. Make sure everything is tightened properly but don't over - tighten to avoid damage. As for maintenance, check the gasket and hardware regularly for signs of wear or damage. If you notice any leaks, running water, or flushing problems, it's a good idea to replace the parts right away. Keep these parts dry and away from harsh chemicals to extend their lifespan.
