Anyone with experience with this flange. I have it connected to my 4 inch diameter cast iron connection and the 3 stainless steel screws to tighten and expand the rubber seal doesnt tighten all the way to its capacity. It probably has 1/2 inch left throughout b4 completely raised up to max and is tight already when turning...should I force them to tighten all the way up ????
Tx !!!

I've had better success with the Sioux Chief with the bigger rubber seal. The local hardware stores quit stocking it though. I may need to bring some in for some of my toilet installs for older 4" cast and lead. You still have to secure that one.

This one is a 3" Sioux Chief.
