Sealand 385316140 VacuFlush Toilet Bowl Seal Kit
If your VacuFlush or Traveler toilet has started leaking around the base or losing suction, the culprit is almost always a worn-out bowl seal. The Sealand 385316140 kit gives you everything you need to fix that problem in one straightforward package — a rubber bowl-to-base seal and a matching ball seal, both built to restore a tight vacuum and stop water from seeping out where the bowl meets the base.
This kit is designed specifically for the older generation of Sealand toilets, the models built in 2000 and earlier, and it includes overflow holes that later seal designs left out. That detail matters, because using the wrong seal on an older toilet can lead to backups or improper drainage. Most owners find the swap takes well under an hour with basic hand tools, and pairing this seal with a fresh ball-and-shaft kit at the same time is a smart way to head off a second repair down the road.
Whether the toilet is on a boat or in an RV, a tired bowl seal is one of those small parts that causes an outsized headache — odors, puddles, and a toilet that just doesn't flush right. Swapping in a genuine Sealand 385316140 kit brings the system back to the way it was meant to work, with a snug seal and dependable vacuum every time you flush.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know if I need the 385316140 seal instead of a newer bowl seal?
A: If your toilet is a Traveler or VacuFlush model from 2000 or earlier and has overflow drain holes in the original seal, the 385316140 is the correct match. Newer VacuFlush toilets typically use a seal without drain holes.
Q: How long does a bowl seal usually last before it needs replacing?
A: Most owners replace this seal every few years, though usage, water quality, and how often the toilet sits unused can shorten or extend that timeframe.
Q: Should I replace the ball and shaft at the same time as the bowl seal?
A: Yes, many technicians recommend it since both parts wear together and servicing them at once saves you from repeating the job soon after.
Q: What tools do I need to install this seal kit?
A: Installation typically requires basic hand tools to remove the metal band around the base, swap the seals, and reclamp everything back together.
Q: Can this seal kit fix a toilet that won't hold vacuum?
A: In many cases, yes. A worn bowl or ball seal is a common cause of vacuum loss, and replacing both seals often resolves the issue.
