Known as a splash guard or mounting gasket, this piece is vital for garbage disposals. It ensures a watertight connection between the sink flange and the disposal ring. The rubber guard rests on the sink drain, featuring a central opening that permits water and food waste to enter the disposal system while blocking any splashes back into the sink. This component can effectively address issues with garbage re-entering your sink.
