Genuine Part Gp1059291 Canister Seal

In terms of the water cost and noisy aggravation of a constantly running toilet (mine is in my bedroom), This couldn’t be an easier or cheaper repair to make. If it even took me five minutes to pop off the float and slip this gasket ring into the idiot proof groove I’d be shocked. In fact I took the opportunity to scrub and disinfect everything once it was all apart. I love the fit and quality of this product and you can tell it’s better than the original gasket, which I suspect of most original equipment, is thinner, cheaper and chintzier. For under 7.00 Yankee dollars the piece of mind and peace and quiet is well worth the price. I’m gonna buy an extra one or two as I use bleach tabs in my tank that put inordinate wear and tear on gaskets.

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

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.

This part is a perfect OEM replacement. Simple and easy DIY replacement

Exactly what I needed and cheaper than at the hardware store

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!

Very easy to install. Fixed the problem of my toilet running.

First, I bought a cheap 3rd-party seal that was supposed to be compatible, but it leaked because the diameter was actually wrong. Then I bought this official Kohler seal, and it works great.

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.

After dealing with a slowly disintegrating gasket for months I finally purchased a replacement. The old one looked like it was made out of polar fleece. Apparently, the original natural rubber seal was damaged by the big clorox chlorine tabs I had put in the tank a while back. Replacing the gasket took almost five whole minutes from start to finish and now the occasional refilling on the toilet tank is gone and the physical effort to push down the flush handle went from a ridiculous number of pounds to a couple of ounces. This new seal appears to be made of a substantially more durable silicone rubber than the natural rubber of the original. The only complaint I have it that I should have replaced it a year earlier when I first noticed increased difficulty pushing down the flush handle and occasional sound of the tank refilling without reason. I bet it wasted thousands of gallons of water. Ugh! Im planning on buying extras and taping them to the underside of the both toilets lids so I dont have an excuse to delay replacing them the next time! If you have a toilet that uses this seal, it is a must-have upgrade even if you dont think you need it. Recommended without reservation.
