Black Swan's Flange & Gasket with Urethane is a urethane gasket made of a tough, flexible and durable urethane foam. This urethane gasket is then impregnated with wax. The combination of urethane foam and the wax makes for a stronger, more resilient ring than regular rings and is guaranteed for 10 years. Can be used for setting all floor outlet toilet bowls. The gasket forms a water tight, gas tight and odor tight seal. Fits 3" and 4" waste lines. Meets Federal Specification TT-P-1536A.
This ring has a plastic flange which extends the discharge opening. This makes for a more positive seal and assures proper bowl alignment. For certain locations throughout the United States local codes require the plastic flange to fit 4" openings only. Black Swan does have this product available (Stock No. 4570).
DIRECTIONS
Be sure the wax ring is at room temperature (about 70° F). If wax ring is too cold a good seal may not be made or the toilet bowl could crack while making the installation.
With the toilet bowl upside down on a protective pad or blanket, place the wax ring around the discharge opening. Press firmly to assure adhesion when the toilet is inverted.
Using the Black Swan's Stainless or Stay Soft Putty, make a putty ring about 1 inch high around the outside rim of the toilet. This will make a seal between the toilet rim and the floor.
Carefully set the toilet down on bolts and twist bowl slightly to spread wax and putty to make a tight seal. Tighten bolts carefully to prevent breaking the bowl.
