Summary:A Gasket Assembly includes an upper housing (23a) forming a seal with the outlet of a bathroom fixture, and a lower housing (27a) forming a seal with a sewer pipe (12a). The lower housing has an outer surface extending along an axis and a toroidal gasket (34a) disposed in sealing relationship with the outer surface and the sewer pipe. To accommodate larger sewer pipes, the outer surface can be formed on an adapter and a second gasket (47) provided to form a seal with the adapter. In an associated method for mounting the gasket assembly, the gasket is rolled axially in a continuous sealing relationship with the lower housing. L'invention concerne un ensemble de joint comprenant un corps (23a) supérieur formant un joint étanche avec l'écoulement de sortie d'un appareil sanitaire, et un corps (27a) inférieur formant un joint étanche avec un tuyau (12a) d'évacuation. Le corps inférieur présente une surface externe s'étendant le long d'un axe et un joint (34a) toroïdal placé de manière à former une étanchéité entre la surface externe et le tuyau d'évacuation. Pour pouvoir être adaptée sur des tuyaux d'évacuation plus grands, la surface externe peut être formée sur un adaptateur et un second joint (47) formant une fermeture étanche avec l'adaptateur peut être installé. Dans le procédé permettant le montage de cet ensemble joint, le joint se déplace en roulant dans la direction axiale de manière à former un contact étanche continu avec le corps inférieur.
