SANI SEAL BL01 Toilet Gasket, Others, 1

Product Information

Fixing the coupling plate is the reverse of dismantling. Thread the outlet valve through the central hole in the cistern from the inside after applying the sealing ring to the screw thread. Put the coupling plate on the outside and then the nut. When tightening the nut it’s important to either have the bolts in place or be sure they can be slotted into place afterwards. With my cistern there are dimples in the porcelain for the bolt heads to fit in and I can put them in place after the coupling plate is fixed.

The Sani Seal gasket is made of a very flexible polyurethane foam that is re-positionable, antimicrobial and functions no matter what the temperature, providing an easy trouble free installation. They both will position the toilet bolts in such a way that you literally can’t miss when setting a toilet bowl. Because the Sani Seal gasket extremely flexible, I think it would be the best choice if your floor is not exactly level. Not only is our Wax-Free Toilet Seal easier to install than traditional wax rings, but it also provides superior performance. It can withstand extreme temperatures and won’t break down over time, ensuring long-lasting durability and peace of mind. The cistern should not overflow into the overflow pipe unless the water level goes above the line in the cistern. Traditionally, toilet seals have been made of wax in a ring shape. You place the ring under the toilet on top of the flange (the part bolted to the floor) and the idea is that the weight of the toilet will compress the wax into exactly the right shape so that it forms a good seal.

I find that when parts are new or undamaged there’s no need. Rubber rings are used because they seal well as long as they are seated correctly and have the right amount of pressure applied when tightened. These seals’ ability to stand up to heat is another benefit. Although wax seals are usually safe for use in bathrooms with radiant floor heating, using a wax-free seal eliminates the risk of the seal melting. Wax-free seals are also a safer bet in climates with temperatures that reach higher than 100 degrees. At temperatures that high, if your air conditioning goes out, a wax seal can soften enough to leak, but a wax-free seal holds its shape.
