> 3 dayi needed this to fit inside my leaded pipe sleeve that was damaged due to 100+ yrs in use. Worked and sealed the pipe better than others i looked at. However, giving 4 stars as the SS bolts were really cheap and 2/3 seized up or cross threaded upon tightening. Maybe i should have greased them before, but I had to cut both apart with dremel and replace with better HW.

18-11-2024I installed this and screwed the flange down too for extra support. Time will tell, my old one lasted 5 years although it was only support by the 3 I.D. bolt adjusting screws.

Greater than one weekThis piece really seemed to be perfect for my particular application, where the person who lived in this house previous (and it is an old 1930s era house) had really done a number on installing the old toilet. When I pulled the old one off (made in 67..finally had the tank crack and flood the bathroom), there was no flange of any kind. The guy had used the lead-trick on top of the iron pipe to form a flange...the bolts for the bowl were screwed down into the floor..and of course broke off when I removed the nuts. SO...after much research, and really good reviews on this piece, I ordered it. It fit into the 4 pipe quite well and snugged down very nicely on my practice try...maybe a mistake, because one of the nuts somehow cross-threaded, I think, and I couldnt get it to go either way. So when I went to do the install, I could not tighten all 3 allen-screws down like I wanted. At any rate, I was able to put 3 really nice long wood screws into the floor to secure the flange, and the new toilet fit on it perfectly...level...and we are off and running...well...off and something!!

> 3 dayRaised our floor from adding tile work. Had a cast iron setup in the floor and the 1 side did not have a spot for the toliet bolt. Instead of replacing the whole cast iron setup I installed one of these. Install was fast, tightened it down and good to go. Been about 3 months now of use with no issues. Saved a ton of money with those product. Was not paid for this review or receive at a discount.

> 3 dayI am currently remodeling my bathroom and had to remove the toilet for the new tile installation. Once the toilet was removed it was revealed to have a old, rusted, and almost broken cast iron flange. It was ready to be replaced. I did my research online and decided to go with this simple replacement rather than call a plumber to install a new cast iron flange which I would assume would cost hundreds of dollars. Once I was able to chisel and hammer out the old cast iron flange, I took a wire brush and cleaned the inside pipe of any rust and debris from it(wear a mask for this part). Once the pipe was cleaned up, this flange slid right into place, no problem. I tightened up the screws that held it place very securely, added my extra large wax ring and installed the toilet with no problem. I also caulked around the base of the toilet for added protection against leaks and any movement of the toilet.

Greater than one weekThis thing was/is amazing. Fit perfectly into the cast iron pipe and tightened as tight as the old cast iron flange used to be. Toilet is as tight as it could be and it doesn’t wobble anymore!!! Very happy with this....

> 3 dayI was able to replace a broken flange for my new toilet with this. Installation was very easy and fits perfect, the additional screws create a very tight seal
