Thetford Spares

 ·  Posted: 20.04.2022  ·  #1

Our Thetford toilet cassette (C20?) has developed a leak around the sliding mechanism. When the cassette is stood vertically, there's a substantial 'dribble' from the sliding cover.
Is there a replacement washer or similar?.....any advice on spares and best Ireland supplier appreciated.

Not sure which seal or seals to replace. One leak is from the slider area when the cassette is stood vertically as I mentioned. But the bowl doesn't 'hold water' either when the cassette is in use, it drains immediately as it fills etc.

I think it's the same seal

Seal identified thanks to Google, ordered and on the way thanks to Ally and Charles Camping, and all done whilst sitting in the sunshine at the Lookout in Dungarvan.

Great Craic fitting said seal

Lubricate the new seal with a bit of non setting silicone grease (o ring lubricant) and it will keep the seal moist and soft,

The lip seal on.my casette was letTing water past it also and a bit of the silicone grease sorted it,
