Jr Smith 8730GKT Interceptor Gasket
The Jr Smith 8730GKT is a neoprene cover gasket built for suspended-type solids interceptors in industrial plumbing systems. It provides a reliable seal that keeps intercepted solids contained during operation. Maintenance crews and facility engineers specify this gasket when servicing interceptor units that require a durable rubber barrier. The black rubber construction resists degradation from waste streams commonly found in commercial installations.
Replaces Worn Interceptor Seals
This gasket replaces a deteriorated or leaking cover seal on an existing solids interceptor. The upgrade is worth it when the current gasket shows cracking, compression set or chemical attack that lets odours or solids escape. A fresh neoprene gasket restores the interceptor’s containment performance without replacing the whole vessel. Installers fit it during scheduled clean-out intervals to minimise downtime.
Fits Standard Interceptor Covers
The gasket seats directly into the interceptor’s cover groove and requires no additional hardware or adhesives. Its rubber composition conforms to flange irregularities, freeing the installer from precise torque sequences. The ASME A 112.14. 3 listing confirms compliance with recognised plumbing standards. No specialised tools are needed beyond those normally carried for interceptor maintenance.

Questions about this item
What pipe size does the Jr Smith 8730GKT gasket fit?
The gasket is not sized to a specific pipe diameter; it is designed as a cover gasket for suspended-type solids interceptors.
How is the neoprene gasket installed on the interceptor cover?
Place the black rubber gasket flat on the cover flange, align the bolt holes, then torque the cover bolts evenly in a cross pattern to avoid pinching the material.
When should the ASME A 112.14.3 compliant gasket be replaced?
Inspect during routine interceptor cleaning; replace the gasket if the neoprene shows cracking, permanent compression set, or chemical swelling.
