This gasket provides a reliable seal at the meter flange connection, preventing leaks in water service and metering assemblies. At 0.03 pounds, it is a lightweight component that seats directly into the flange without fasteners or adhesives. Plumbers and water utility technicians rely on this type of drop-in gasket for quick, accurate placement during meter installation or replacement. It is a standard consumable in water service work and is commonly stocked in volume for service crews.

This gasket is suited for residential and commercial water meter installations where a 1-1/2 inch flanged meter connection is present. It is used during new meter sets and meter exchange work at the curb stop or meter pit. The flat drop-in profile ensures proper seating against both the meter body and the coupling flange without requiring field cutting or trimming.
