A.o. Smith 100109686 Cleanout Gasket

Product Description

The A.O. SMITH 100109686 is a replacement cleanout gasket designed for use in water heater service and maintenance applications. A cleanout gasket seals the cleanout opening on a water heater tank, preventing leaks and maintaining a watertight connection at the access port. This part is typically installed by licensed plumbers or water heater service technicians during routine maintenance, sediment flushing, or tank inspection procedures.

This cleanout gasket is suited for residential and light commercial water heater applications where the original factory gasket has deteriorated, cracked, or failed to seal properly. It restores a proper seal at the cleanout port, helping prevent water intrusion and tank corrosion at the access point.
