Thanks South Texas Sun, but the work 'gasket' is a little mis-leading. Granted, the industry calls it a 'Spider Gasket' but it's more of an o-ring in a spider web formation with a thick rubber base. I'm afraid that automotive gasket material is not going to satisfy the pool gods. This is a very specialized part. Thanks for your suggestion. For a hard to buy traditional 'gasket' your suggestion would have been the ticket.

Scott.
