skimmer cup gasket?

[boxfishpooalot]

Hey, Im just wondering what that rubber sheet is called to water proof the skimmer flange. The part that goes between the skimmer cup and the base to form a water proof seal. Whats that called and where do you get it?

The o-ring that I currently use seems to leak a bit because I can only get a certain size for it. The o ring should be thicker but nobody here carrys it. So my option now is to go with rubber sheet. Whats the rubber called?

I used EPMD rubber used as pond liners for a flange gasket before. You can usually get scrap pieces from any pond/water garden center for free.

Most Home Depots have a pond section in the garden area.


How do you like the TUNZE wavebox?

works great! Moves everything back and forth. Just like the ocean.

I use a rubber band.
