Continuous pressure cycling and seasonal freeze-thaw gradually harden the black nitrile rubber until it stops compressing fully and water starts seeping around the valve stem. This OEM black spider gasket is the correct replacement for original-style Ultima II valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eValve Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.5\" (1-1\/2\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStyle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOriginal design, black nitrile rubber\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUltima II series filters with original 1.5\" main valve assembly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eValve stem seat seal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen to Replace\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSigns of a failing spider gasket include slow drips around the valve stem, water pooling under the filter after backwash, or visible cracking and hardening on the rubber surface.

Remove the valve housing cover and carefully pry the old gasket away from the valve seat without gouging the mounting surface. Clean any residual rubber or debris. Apply a thin coat of rubber gasket adhesive to the new spider gasket and press it firmly into the valve seat. Allow 24 hours for adhesive to cure before reactivating the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: this is the original black gasket.
