Exactly. The seal between the tub and overflow pipe is responsible for preventing leaks.
Previously, I had a terrible leak at the overflow, and this gasket fixed the problem. I have since replaced them and they have stopped the leak, but it is important to ensure that the gasket is seated completely in the tub-overflow pipe joint. In addition, there is not much room to slip this gasket into place since there is not much room to work with.
If my memory serves me correctly, it is 1/4" and gross to 3/4". The tub is tapered to fit on a ball and claw base. I did it for a restoration job I did a few
There is a lot of material in it. The one I used was on a ball/claw footed If you're thinking of giving it a try, it isn't very expensive. Good luck.

An installation video that made a big difference for me was watched. It's basically a matter of pushing the overflow pipe back with the tip of the screwdriver and taking off the old gasket. Then you wipe down the inside and outside surfaces of the tub. Next, we need to figure out how to do it. Coat the gasket all around with Vaseline, fold it into the opening so the thicker side is at the bottom and lay it in place. Several screws and a plate need to be replaced after it is centered. In addition to the Bluevu overflow system, we used the AWS site. Keeping leaks at bay, the two work well together to seal the overflow tube.
3, 4, 5 The outer diameter is 3/16". It is very compressible and malleable with a thickness of 1/2" at its thickest to 3/16 at its thinnest. The hard gasket on my old Gerber brass overflow pipe had crumbled. the inner and outer diameters were perfectly matched. it feels like it will make a good seal, but I can't test it with my daughter's bath until I receive a few parts. As long as your tub is flat and you require a straight down plumb pipe, you can rotate the gasket to the right angle. If you have a flat tub, this probably would not be the best option As there are no tabs on this sponge gasket like there are on the rubber gaskets to hold it in place, a second person will likely be needed to hold it while you tighten screws that fasten the pipe to the tub and compress the Getting a good fit is easy with an oval setup. You can squeeze the sides and get it. There are no options to upload pictures for this review. I took caliper readings but did not take any pictures.
After watching videos explaining the mistakes and bad shortcuts contractors and builders take regarding bathrooms, I am so glad I purchased this and installed it behind my replacement overflow tub plate. These shortcuts create loose tile, water damage, and mold in tropical areas, even though they are up to code. As a result of the new plate and purchase, I am glad I educated myself and bought this to replace the old one as previously water was getting behind all fixtures and created big headaches and damage over time.
There was no longer any gasket on the old car. If you drop the gasket while putting it on the drain you could lose it, and you would lose the tub. So make sure you are careful not to drop There was a small amount of silicon lubricant used.
Sealant is required. I think it will fit well around my emergency valve, but I will have to use some silicone sealant to make it water-tight. There seemed to be a better fit with the thicker side downward (near the drain), and the thinner side upward.
It is true that No, I wouldn't describe it as my favorite. It's so small that I can't even notice This product stops my tub from leaking into the basement, so it gets a solid four stars from me. For the price, I don't have any complaints about its performance, and I assumed it works like similar products.
I see water downstairs as I take a bath, no wonder I kept seeing it! There was no such device in my house!.
This is just a soft, mushy gasket that fits between the pipe and tub's outer I found it to be effective.
