Tub Gasket

Tub Gasket
The Tub Gasket seals the top and sides of the tub to
the door. The retainer is molded into the PermaTuf
Tub. The seal pushes into the retainer area of the
tub, and no sealant or RTV is used to install the
tub gasket. There is a stop molded into the tub to
provide a proper position end point for the gasket.

Tub Gasket Installation
1. The center of the gasket has a mark which is
placed pointing to the inside of the dishwasher.
This position will orient the gasket wiper to face
the inside of the dishwasher and to the inner
door.

2. Start by placing the mark down and align with
the tub latch. Push the gasket into the track,
working outward to the top corners.
3. Push the gasket into the track through the
corners, making sure the wiper portion of the
gasket does not turn inward or outward causing
the gasket to not have an even plane around
the corners. Stretching the gasket may cause
the gasket to roll in our out, which will cause the
new gasket to leak. If the gasket wiper rolls in or
out, pull the gasket out of the track and reinsert
into place.
The wiper on the Gasket
must make a smooth turn
