Genuine Part Gp1059291 Canister Seal

My toilet was draining and refilling constantly and I determined it was due to the canister seal. I considered getting a cheaper generic one but read mixed reviews, so I went with the name brand. I cant speak to the durability of this item but it was easy to install and the toilet issue has been resolved!

Good buy

Took a chance and tried to go cheap - bought a two-pack of aftermarket (non-Kohler) seals that sold for the same price as one Kohler. Wasted my time and money. Both leaked from the start. After taking a wire brush to all contact surfaces to ensure old seal left no remnants. Flipped each to see if I could seal - no dice. Kohler seal came a few days after order. Not a drop leaks anymore. Dont waste time and try to skimp. Go straight to Kohler. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.

UPDATE—exactly 4 years after I purchased these, they started to fail, water was draining out of the tank and I would hear the toilets periodically refill, which progressively happened more and more frequently. When I removed these to replace them again, I noticed that they had stretched out and were considerably more loose than a brand new replacement. So I am concluding that these have a four year life. ORIGINAL REVIEW: have 4 Kohler cannister toilets in the house we recently purchased and 3 of them had issues—one was very hard to press the flush handle, one had a slow leak into the tank and would refill every half hour or so, one leaked into the tank nonstop and the water just started running until I shut off the water valve. I purchased 3 of these replacement gaskets which all fixed the different problems in every toilet. Highly recommend. I am going to buy another one to replace in the 4th toilet just to avert a problem likely to come. Highly recommend this part BEFORE you bother to replace the entire cannister gizmo. Glad I read the reviews and purchase the authentic part and didn’t do more than I needed to.

If you are worried this wont fit, dont be. It replaces the red one and appears to be of better quality. It was easy to install and works perfectly. Will purchase again (hopefully, not too soon)…

Fit like a charm

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

Easy to install! Solved our issue with toilet refilling ALL the time! The old one was definitely worn and had bubbles. Lots of youtube tutorials on how to change this out. If your kohler toilet is running refilling a lot give this a shot before replacing!

After nine years, the original canister seal disintegrated causing the toilet to continue running. It was difficult to remove the canister top (plastic, didnt want to snap/break it), but once that was done the old seal took some work to remove but this seal went on like a charm. Hoping to get another 9 years out of it.

Exactly what I needed and cheaper than at the hardware store
