This T-shaped gasket—with one flat side and one “T” side—ensures a reliable, leak-free connection in hot-water or high-flow environments where standard gaskets may fail. Its durable elastomeric material resists deformation, chemical exposure, and thermal stress, making it ideal for both residential and commercial pool systems that experience elevated temperatures around heaters, heat exchangers or solar-augmented loops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"756\" data-end=\"772\"\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"773\" data-end=\"1690\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"773\" data-end=\"947\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"775\" data-end=\"947\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"775\" data-end=\"807\"\u003eHigh-Temperature Rated Seal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crafted from materials rated for elevated pool and spa temperatures, providing reliable performance where standard gaskets would degrade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"948\" data-end=\"1148\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"950\" data-end=\"1148\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"950\" data-end=\"983\"\u003eT-Shape and Flat Side Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e The dual-geometry design (T shape on one side and flat on the other) accommodates the specific CMP Hi-Temp union profile, ensuring precise fit and proper sealing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1149\" data-end=\"1322\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1151\" data-end=\"1322\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1151\" data-end=\"1179\"\u003eDirect Replacement Part:\u003c\/strong\u003e Identified by part number 26200-210-632, this gasket fits CMP Hi-Temp union series and removes the need to replace the entire union housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1323\" data-end=\"1505\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1325\" data-end=\"1505\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1325\" data-end=\"1355\"\u003eChemical and UV Resistant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Constructed to withstand common pool chemicals, solar exposure and repeated thermal cycling—enhancing longevity and reducing maintenance frequency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1506\" data-end=\"1690\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1508\" data-end=\"1690\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1508\" data-end=\"1535\"\u003eSimple Service Upgrade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ideal for service technicians or DIY maintenance, this gasket allows fast, cost-effective replacement of a worn seal without major plumbing modifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"373\" data-end=\"392\"\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"393\" data-end=\"647\"\u003eThis section answers the in-store questions customers commonly ask about the CMP 26200-210-632 Hi-Temp Union T-Gasket.
