Watts 0881428 Gasket
The Watts 0881428 is a professional-grade GB-D 1.25" HI-TEMP GASKET engineered specifically for high-demand dielectric union replacements. As a veteran-preferred component for the 3001 series unions, this EPDM steam gasket is built to maintain a mission-critical seal in hydronic heating and steam distribution systems. Unlike standard rubber seals that fail under thermal stress, these gaskets are rated for continuous exposure to 300 degrees Fahrenheit, providing the resilience needed for boiler and fluid control assemblies. The 1.25-inch sizing ensures a precise, high-compression fit that prevents leaks and resists the corrosive effects of localized galvanic action. For contractors servicing industrial boilers or commercial HVAC setups, this Watts high-temperature gasket is the standard for maintaining system integrity and long-term hydronic efficiency. Integrating these dielectric union gaskets into your maintenance routine prevents common points of failure in piping transitions where temperature and pressure fluctuate constantly.
