Insinkerator MGK-00 4 in. Rubber Mounting Gasket Kit, Black

Highly recommend. DIY skills a plus. As installation instructions included on the package are rather basic, I highly recommend watching a few youtube installation videos. For instance, when reinstalling the unit, pressure must be applied to the bottom of the unit while simultaneously reaching up and turning the locking ring. I used a bucket under the unit to keep it from dropping too far while the gasket was being replaced. I used a 4 foot long 4 inch wide by ½ inch thick wooden board with one end placed under the unit to gain some leverage while reinstalling the unit. This allowed me to use both my hands to push up on the locking ring while I used my leg to gently pull down on the other end of the board which pushed the unit up enough to allow the locking ring to engage. Not sure I would have succeeded without the board. All is back together now. The gasket looks great and there are no leaks.

This part seals the place where the top of the disposer attaches to the bottom of the sink drain (hence the term "gasket") and also serves the function of blocking food particles from flying out of the disposer when it's running. I was concerned about Internet reviews of third-party after-market replacements that are stiff rubber and make it hard for food to go down the drain and for water to drain properly. This OEM part is a very nice soft rubber exactly like the original and allows food and water easily to go down the drain and not pop out. Installation requires disconnecting the J-trap drain pipe and unhooking the disposer under the sink and then reattaching, but both steps are quite easy for a reasonably handy do-it-yourselfer, especially with the disposer's easy-disconnect locking ring .

Problem with installation was that the disposal had to be completely removed from sink and all plumbing to replace the baffle.Then, of course, you have to deal with all the little leaks when put back together again.Also,aligning the disposal to the undersink holding ring was not easy. The disposal is very old, hopefully newer designs have done away with that. InSinkErator makes a great product. This one is still working great

The product worked as advertised. It was easy to install once you have the proper tools. Lacking was was which way to turn the locking ring to release the grinder.

my badger five has been under my sink for at least 15 yr; I think the gasket was original to the sink 1971. i watched a video on replacing a gasket on an insinkerator badger 5 with the matching gasket and it was done with very little resistance and with much ease. and now my sink is that much more sanitary and pleasant.

Volunteered to do the plumbing work for a neighbor who was putting in a new countertop, sink and faucet. She has an Insinkerator disposal (Badger 5) but the mounting gasket needed to be replaced (would have worked but wouldn't look good in the new sink). Bought this product because one of the two gaskets was the correct one. Worked great, but then had one leftover that I didn't need. Why not sell them individually and charge half the price?

Insinkerator operates quietly and efficiently. The replacement gasket was considerably easy to install. The original Insinkerator, including the gasket which I needed to replace, had been in this house since 1994 and we never had any problems with it.

I had the pleasure to work directly with a Customer Service Rep who advised me of the exact piece I needed for my disposal. Part was delivered earlier than expected and was perfect! Great customer service!!
