Genuine Part Gp1059291 Canister Seal

I ordered one of these gaskets along with a whole new flush assembly. On a whim, I tried the gasket alone before replacing the whole assembly, and it was less than five minutes start to finish. Great tutorial videos on YouTube. Great update to a bad factory gasket.

This was a necessary repair part to fix a toilet that kept randomly running. It was easy enough to pull the canister out of the tank and replace the seal. The old seal all but fell off on its own. There are some good videos on YT that show exactly how to replace it.

been working good. No problems.

We had a bathroom renovation two years ago and the new toilet had a canister flush valve. I heard the sign of a flapper valve leak, spontaneously refilling, and discovered the canister in its place. I watched a clip on YouTube that explained simple maintenance of the canister. I ordered this part and when it arrived it took just a few minutes to replace the o-ring. When I turned the water on, the spontaneous leak was gone.

I noticed that my Kohler (K-4436-AA) toilet would start running randomly throughout the day when it wasnt in use. Reading online it seems that a common problem for running toilets is that the canister seal becomes brittle over time and need to be replaced. There are some great videos on YouTube showing the replacement process for the canister flush valve seal. FYI, The replacement seal is a yellow color while the original seal is red, the product packaging shows that new seal is meant to replace the original red seal. During the seal installation, I confirmed that the yellow seal is indeed a perfect replacement for the original red seal. Additionally, since installing the replacement seal I havent noticed the toilet running randomly anymore. Im hoping that this permanently fixes my running toilet if I notice its running again there is most likely another issue causing the water running.

Genuine part so it was a perfect fit for a Kohler commode

Took 30 seconds to replace. Easy and perfect . No leak down just like new.

DC has such hard treated water the original red seal rings needed replacing after 10 years. These rings are perfect - no more water leaks. I replaced seals on all three toilets and am sure we have saved $$$ many times over the cost and simple replacement of the failed rings. Get these you will be glad you did!

Our home was built in 2013 and the builder put in Kohler products throughout the house. Fast forward to 2021 and some toilet flush mechanisms were getting harder to flush and it turns out that these gaskets need to be replaced to maintain a tight and smooth seal between the tank drain and filll cylinder, especially if you have hard water or big changes in temperature. In our case, the hard water basically dissolved the original gaskets and it was sticking to the tank drain hole when flushing. The new one is super easy to install taking only 2 to 4 minutes. After the install, the flush mechanism is super smooth and water seal is tight. Stick with original Kohler parts for exact measure and perfect fit.

Very easy to install, no leaks!
