Bought new seal, still leaking. Does the blade skirt fix this?

it could. the gasket goes between the glass and the blade, then the skirt goes on. If the gasket is new, then the problem could be the plastic surrounding the blade is warped cracked or damaged. The problem I had with the blade skirt was the little tabs kept breaking off and stopped the motor from working.

Mine didn't. It wasn't even the same skirt that was showen on the sellers site.

I would think so, unless something's wrong with the blade itself. If the blade's not bent, then the skirt should tighten it sufficiently. Plastic closure tips on the inside of my old skirt started to break off, so I couldn't tighten it anymore. The new skirt resolved that problem. Hope a new skirt solves your problem!

Possibly. Check to see if the blade skirt is on tight, check for the clamps from the skirt are broken.

this skirt is exactly like th original. no leaks. I axtually bought it because the bottom notches that show the blender is in place were broken. the blender would not start without them. the new skirt works grat for that too

I honestly don't remember when I got it if it had a seal or not. I'd contact the company if you want to be sure.

I just went through this issue as well, with the New and Improved filters...as Special Etc mentioned, it was because I hadn't pushed down on the filter enough to create a seal. I could actually see water leaking out the bottom, in addition to it pouring out the 4 holes. After pulling it out, re-inserting it and pushing it down hard, it sat much better and the filtering was back to normal again.

Sorry, it's been years since I replaced mine and I don't remember. All I can tell you is; I didn't need anything but the kit to replace the seal(s). I wish I could be of more assistance. Looking at the picture, I believe it is showing two seals

Yes. I tested mine and the seal is complete. I find this accessory to be of good quality and functional. Have had no problems and use it often

I did adjust the closure and made sure the seal was okay. That seems to have taken care of the problem the last couple of times I used it.

Mine wouldn't re-seal either, so i just squeezed all the air out and rolled the top down & used a clip to hold it closed. Has worked for me.

Yes, it has happened twice. We called and they sent us a replacement blade unit. It seems once the rubber gasket comes off, the unit is useless because the problem just re-occurs which means you have a mess on your hands when you use it. So we have a couple of useless units now just gathering dust.

My blender never leaks and I've had it over 2 years. You probably didn't put the gasket and blade back on correctly. Make sure you put the rubber gasket on the glass jar first, then the blade then screw on the bottom plastic piece. Hope this helps.

Yes, Mine came with a soft rubbery sealant that seemed to seal just fine. I've had no problems with any leaks.

I am sure there is a way to patch it, but the company has a pretty good warranty and a lifetime warranty against leaks. I haven't had any troubles with leaking yet with moderate use so far.

Check the rubber gasket. If it is getting brittle, it will not seal. A cheap, easy fix.

The fit is precise but that's a good thing to avoid leakage. Try pressing down on the handles before twisting to open as that could help break the seal on the rubber gasket. No tool as far as I know. Good luck!

Hi Vikas, i had that same problem in the beginning, I changed the hose and it still happened but it wasnt drastic, i tightened the hose and since its been fine with no problems. Not sure where it is leaking from but check the hose connections, I hope this helps.

mine had no seal with it and i haven't had any leaks yet. used it all summer with a lot of rain , maybe it's your rubber seal that it sits on that needs replaced.

I changed mine when I changed the sealing ring, which is what the manual states. The sealing ring was shrinking and was no longer a good fit. It was loose, and there was starting to be some leakage.

Your seal is probably bad. Try one of these: Marineland (Aquaria) D-Ring Cover Seal-H.O.T. Magnum be sure and coat with vaseline before you replace it. If that doesn't fix the problem, it's probably something worse and not fixable by you. Contact Marineland for service.
