Gasket X9126
$12.99
Genuine Tacony OEM gasket (part# X9126) for the Tornado Marathon SE 900 (Model 98170) and Powr-Flite Prowler PFX900S brush assembly. Its own size and shape, so match it to the joint it came out of.
The Gasket (part# X9126) is a genuine Tacony OEM replacement part from the brush assembly of the Tornado Marathon SE 900 self-contained carpet extractor. It is the gasket specified for a particular sealed joint in the brush assembly.
What the Gasket does
A gasket is cut to the joint it serves, and a machine carries several that look broadly similar in a parts drawer. Bolt pattern, outside profile and thickness are all part of the specification, and thickness in particular is what sets how far the joint closes. Fit a thicker gasket than specified and you change the clearance behind the joint; fit a thinner one and the fasteners bottom before the seal is compressed.
When to replace the Gasket (X9126)
Replace it whenever the joint is opened, and immediately if it is torn, nicked at an edge, or has taken a permanent set. A joint that only stops weeping when it is overtightened is telling you the gasket has already been crushed beyond its working range.
Gasket X9126 — fitment and installation notes
Check the new gasket against the old one for hole pattern and thickness before fitting rather than after, since a gasket that nearly matches will seem right until the joint is closed. Clean both faces properly, keep the fastener sequence even, and check the joint after the first run. Tacony builds the Tornado Marathon SE 900 and the Powr-Flite Prowler PFX900S on a single machine platform, so this component carries across both brands rather than belonging to either one. It is a shared Tacony component and may fit additional models beyond those listed — call us and we will confirm against your serial number.
