This motor gasket is of the highest quality neoprene and designed to last for years. It is crafted to be heat resistant and does not dry and crack like cheap motor gaskets do. The cheap motor gasket will break down over time due to heat and allow leakage.
Always replace the motor gasket when you replace your vacuum motor! This provides a tight seal for the motor which eliminates air leaks as well as absorption of motor vibration allowing the motor to perform smoothly and safely.
