Stainless Steel Tumbler Leaking

[Leaddog]

Over the past 2 years I have run my tumbler (Thumbler B Model)about twice a week. It's now leaking around the lid seal and I need to get a fix.

Has anyone experienced this? Did a replacement lid seal cure the problem or did you replace both the seal and the liner?

Where is the best (and fastest) place to buy these replacement parts?

Thank you.

I had the same thing happen to me. I found that getting both the lid and drum gaskets wet before screwing them down fixed the problem. The problem is the top gasket has stretched out. I would just call Thumlers direct 1800-225-1017. They will just send you out a new to gasket. That will fix it for good. Tell them that I sent you.

making a polycarbonate (lexan) lid solves the problem for good.

Let us know how this works out (them sending you out a new one). Good info to know when the time comes.

I have 2 new lid seals coming my way. They were about 6 bucks or so apiece. Small price to keep my operation rolling.
