Fix your running toilet with Fluidmaster 555C Flush Valve and Flapper Repair Kit. If you have replaced the flapper and the toilet is still running, then the 555C will resolve the issue. The 555C works on both 1 and 2-piece toilets with a 2'” inch flush valve. Best for toilets made after 1985. When flush valves become defective it is a pain to remove the tank to swap them out. Using a flush valve repair kit is a great option, eliminates removing the tank, and can solve your leak in minutes. This kit will also restore the flushing performance of your toilet.

This kit includes the 502 flapper which is removable. The 555C allows you to repair a damaged flush valve “drain seat” so that your new flapper can make a water tight seal. The advantage of this kit is it allows you to repair a damaged flush valve without removing the tank and stop the water loss through the drain and flapper. The putty will work on plastic, ceramic and metal drain seats and will come off easily after many years of use.
