wax ring
Plumbing floor seal
A wax ring is a doughnut-shaped gasket made of soft wax, used to create a watertight seal between a toilet and the floor drain.
The wax compresses when the toilet is bolted down, filling gaps and preventing leaks and sewer gases from escaping: The plumber replaced the wax ring when the toilet started leaking at the base.
