The splash guard, also known as a mounting gasket, is used for garbage disposals. The guard creates a tight seal between the sink and the garbage disposal ring. This part is black in color and made of rubber. It covers the top of the sink drain and it opens in the center to allow water and food particles into garbage disposal. It does this while ensuring liquids and food do not splash back into the sink. This should be a solution to your issue of garbage coming back out of the sink. Refer to the instructional diagram provided by the manufacturer for installation instructions.

I need to know if this part will fit the GE disposal referenced. The space in the sink measures about 3" across. Most of the replacement stoppers are about 3 1/2 or so and don't fit the opening. Please advise. Thanks!

Deteriating splash guard
The splash guard for the disposer was deteriorating and kept falling into the disposer and getting chewed up making it even less reliable. I purchased two different 'universal' splash guards at the hardware store. Neither of them fit. I finally crawled under the sink with my eyeglasses and a flash light to find the model number. I searched for the model number on part select and received veery quickly. I just popped it in (less than a minute) and now everything is wonderful. Don't buy a new disposer (my wife wanted me to) buy the replacement part that is giving you trouble at PartSelect!

Splash guard kept popping up when disposer was used.

rotted splashguare
It was very difficult to find a splash guard to fit. Have tried at major stores LOWES and small Hardware stores. The people who worked on your Phone line helped me to choose the correct splashguard even though the model number did not match. I think the diposal was old. thanks for your help. It fit perfectly.

All the same?
I went to home depot and picked one out thinking they are all the same size. Nope! So I went to PartSelect and with the Make and model was able to get the correct part without looking all over creation for a stupid garbage disposal splash guard. The one I had was 10 years old and these things wear out over time.
Very easy and got the correct part!

Splash guard for GE disposal
The replacement splash guard was exactly what I have needed and been looking for. I have searched for over a year for a replacement and a plumber even told me that my disposal was no longer being made and I would never find a replacement. Boy did your company and I prove him wrong ??. Thank you. I will always check your website for all my appliance parts and repairs.
