Filter Wagon wheel Gasket | Standard 197mm diameter seal for sand filters

The wagon wheel gasket or seal is situated on the multi-port-valve of the swimming pool sand filter. When the seal is old and worn, it often allows water to escape through to the backwash or waste section of the valve, thus the swimming pool loses water.
