VALTERRA Rubber Tank Gasket | Leak-Proof Seal for Caravan Holding Tanks

Ensure a completely secure and leak-proof plumbing system in your caravan or motorhome with the genuine VALTERRA Rubber Tank Gasket. An essential component for any serious caravanning enthusiast, this high-quality grommet is expertly engineered to create a dependable, watertight seal where drain pipes enter your polyethylene holding tanks. Say goodbye to worries about slow leaks, water damage, and unpleasant odors, and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a professionally sealed system. Designed for durability and ease of use, this gasket is the go-to choice for both new installations and critical repairs on your fresh, grey, or black water tanks.

The VALTERRA Rubber Tank Gasket is built to withstand the unique demands of life on the road. Its flexible construction absorbs vibrations and slight movements between the tank and plumbing, preventing the seal from breaking or cracking over time—a common failure point for rigid fittings. This resilience ensures a long-lasting, reliable connection that you can count on, trip after trip. Whether you are upgrading your existing setup or building a custom water system, this gasket provides a far superior and more forgiving seal than many alternative methods.

Key Benefits:

* Absolute Leak-Proof Performance: Creates a powerful, positive compression seal to completely prevent water from escaping your holding tank, protecting your vehicle´s interior and undercarriage from costly water damage.
* Eliminates Odors: By forming an airtight barrier, this gasket effectively contains odors within your grey and black water tanks, contributing to a cleaner and more pleasant living environment inside your caravan.
* Durable and Resilient: Engineered to resist drying, cracking, and deterioration. Its flexible nature allows it to maintain a perfect seal even with the constant vibrations and flexing that occur during travel.
* Simplified Installation: Offers a straightforward, drill-and-press installation method that is significantly faster and easier than spin-welding or using complex adhesives, saving you time and effort.

Main Features:

* Precision-Engineered Profile: Features a stepped or ribbed design that grips the tank wall securely, ensuring the grommet stays firmly in place once installed.
* Flexible Construction: Allows for easy insertion into the pre-drilled tank hole and accommodates drain pipes for a snug, all-around fit.
* Compression Seal Design: Utilizes an innovative sealing mechanism where a hose clamp expands the pipe inside the grommet, pressing it firmly against the tank for a robust, internally reinforced seal.

Installation and Use:

This gasket is designed specifically for use with polyethylene holding tanks. The installation process is simple and highly effective. After drilling the appropriately sized hole in your tank, the VALTERRA grommet is pressed firmly into place. The drain pipe is then inserted through the grommet into the tank. To complete the seal, a standard hose clamp is tightened around the portion of the drain pipe that is inside the tank grommet. This action expands the rubber, creating an exceptionally strong and reliable compression seal against the inner wall of the tank.
