Seal Ring Installation Note

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

CAUTION:

If installation is performed without using the SST, the seal ring will be damaged and deformed, resulting in an incorrect installation. Always use the SST to install the seal ring.

Temporarily install the seal ring to the pipe so that the seal ring is even with the flange.
