The spider gasket is that face: a rubber web with arms that separate the filter, backwash, rinse, waste, recirculate and closed ports from each other. The handle only means anything while those arms are sealing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe symptoms of a worn one\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen the gasket flattens, tears or comes unglued from the seat, water crosses between ports. The classic sign is a steady trickle out of the waste line with the valve set to filter, which owners often mistake for a leaking valve body. Poor pressure and water going the wrong way during rinse come from the same cause.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClean the seat down to bare plastic before the new gasket goes in. Old adhesive, grit or a scored seat will keep a brand new gasket from sealing, and the valve will behave exactly as it did before. Confirm the valve size against your unit, as this gasket is recorded against the 2 inch multiport.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aladdin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48634796114132,"sku":"SPG-601-1041","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/super-pro-g-406-9-2-multiport-valve-seat-spider-gasket.jpg?v=1788837642","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/gasket-2-sta-mp-vlv","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
