Discuss Porcelain pan connector in the USA area at PlumbersForums.net

Hoping one of you can help

may the most recent job I’ve done I’ve had to fit porcelain pan connectors. Not sure if it’s the right thing to do, but I’ve used plumbers mate to seal it to the pan and the soil. I’ve tested them a lot and they have been fine, but one has started leaking. I’m worried any movement in the toilet might make others leak.
just wondering if any of you have any experience with these and have used an alternative sealant. I feel like silicone would have the same outcome

any advice would be very helpful
 
Bin it and use a mcalpine
 
Leave it upto them if it leaks what do the instructions say ?
 
Fill with white flexible silicon you could use white sticks like ****
 
I would use stixall if they didn’t come with any rubbers.
I have used porcelain ones before and they came with rubber gaskets - one however was so oval that I had to bin the gasket and use s was hire stixall - it’s still ok as far as I know.
Obviously make sure your pans are nicely secured and wobble free.
