It is NO meant for Badger disposals. Attempting to use it with an incompatible model will result in an improper fit and poor performance.
- Desgast: Over time, the rubber material of the baffle may show signs of wear, such as tearing or becoming less flexible. This is normal with prolonged use, especially with exposure to hot water and food waste.
