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 leak - proof seal between the tank and the bowl. Over time, they may wear out and cause leaks, requiring replacement. The hardware, including nuts, bolts, and washers, connects the tank to the bowl. It may need replacing if it cracks, corrodes, or has stripped threads. Gravity - tank repair parts can fix leaks and restore proper flushing, saving you the cost of a full toilet replacement. These parts are ideal for gravity - fed tanks in homes, apartments, hotel rooms, and low - traffic areas (20 to 30 flushes per day). Signs of a tank needing repair are leaking, constant running, and flushing failures.
Using this American Standard tank - to - bowl kit is easy. First, turn off the water supply to the toilet. Then, remove the old parts carefully. Place the new gasket between the tank and the bowl to ensure a tight seal. Use the provided nuts, bolts, and washers to connect the tank to the bowl firmly. When tightening, make sure not to overtighten as it may crack the parts. After installation, turn the water supply back on and check for leaks. For maintenance, regularly inspect the gasket and hardware for signs of wear, such as cracking or corrosion. If you notice any issues, replace the parts promptly to keep your toilet working well.
