Mepco (Dunham Bush) D5449 Gasket
The Mepco (Dunham Bush) D5449 Gasket is a critical sealing component engineered specifically for 1.5" 44-715A and ML9624 float and thermostatic (F&T) steam traps. Designed for high-temperature steam applications, this heavy-duty cover gasket ensures a leak-proof seal and maintains system vacuum integrity. As a veteran-grade steam trap repair part, it is compatible with the Mepco 44 series, including models 44-515 through 44-7125. Replacing the gasket during every teardown is a standard field practice to prevent bypass and pressure loss. This OEM replacement gasket (cross-referenced as D1499) features precision-cut dimensions of approximately 6.35" x 5.65", providing an exact fit for the trap body to resolve common seating issues. When performing routine maintenance or a full rebuild, utilizing the genuine Dunham Bush D5449 ensures the assembly meets original pressure ratings and flow specifications without the risk of material degradation common in generic alternatives.
Key Benefits
- System Integrity: Prevents steam leakage and ensures proper float and thermostatic trap operation.
- OEM Compatibility: Exact replacement for Mepco D5449 and D1499, eliminating the need for field modifications.
- Broad Application: Fits various 1.5" models including 44-715A, 44-575, and 44-7125.
- Contractor Reliability: Reliable material thickness optimizes compression between the trap body and cover.
Common Questions
Which steam trap models use the D5449 gasket?
This gasket is primarily used for the 1.5" 44-715A and ML9624 assemblies. It also services the wider 44 Series F&T traps, such as the 44-530 and 44-775 models.
Can I reuse the old gasket if it looks intact?
No. In professional steam fitting, gaskets are considered "one-time-use" items. Once the cover bolts are loosened, the compression set of the old gasket is lost, significantly increasing the risk of a leak upon reassembly.
What does the D1499 part number represent?
D1499 is a legacy or alternate part number that cross-references directly to the Mepco D5449. They are functionally identical for all 1.5" steam trap applications listed.
