Part # C20-86
Dimensions 9" X 3/8"
Seal Plate Gasket for a Sta-Rite Self-Priming Centrifugal Pump
What can I use to clean off the old gasket from the pump?
Should I use any silicon lubricant or gasket adhesive applied along with this product?
I'm asking because I've purchased one, installed, and have a leak. Thank you!

These types of gaskets usually do not need any type of lubricant or sealant so just a very small amount of o ring or gasket lubricant is fine. Also, you may want to make sure no dirt or types of residue are on the gasket before installation and also maybe inspect the metal of the pump plate or housing to make sure there isn't any corrosion or scale that might be causing the leak.
