Will it fit to existing mounting assembly of my old InSinkErator or do I need to replace it with the mounting assembly that comes with the new unit?

It Should be able to fit. They are standard connections. It comes with mounting assembly and that is easy to replace if needed.

It's highly recommended that you replace the old ring with the new one that comes with it. They are similar, but different. The old one will likely work fine, but the new one will work better. If you happen to have a thick sink like cast iron, fiber glass or stone composite, then you will likely have no choice but to change it since the mounting screws will be too low. The new ring will come with shorter mounting screws as an option for the thicker sinks.

We replaced an older model InSinkerator and the mounting assemblies were the same. I replaced them anyway. You shouldn't have to.

You don't want to use the old ring as the new design ring included with the EXCEL has a rubber isolator built-in to prevent noise from reaching the sink and turning it into a speaker. We were going to use the old ring but decided the new one was worth installing. Just took an extra couple of minutes and the results are impressively quiet.

I replaced the mounting assembly even though I didn't need to. Either would have worked. I had a new sink with a very old disposal. I am barely qualified to change a light bulb and found the process easy. I used nothing but screwdrivers, pliers, and the wrench that came with the unit as the old plug, gaskets, clamps, and pipes hooked up to the new unit without a problem.

Mine was any easy replacement - it fit in place of the old one. I did have to borrow a large Pipe Wrench to loosen the fittings. Be careful not to over tighten when you install the new one.

To bad, if you call Insinkerator you will find them non- responsive. The told me they don't have repair parts and their answer was just by a new faucet. If it still under warrenty they will send out a local service

This adapter allows you to attach the Waste King to a standard 3-bolt mount system used by InSinkErator on your old sink. If you have a new sink, you can use the Waste King EZ mount system that comes with the disposer and you don't need the adapter kit.

On the pump I had to take the old and new pump apart at the impeller housing to make it work. I had to use the old impeller housing on the new pump. I tried swapping the mounting bracket on the pump but bolt holes did not line up.Vern

Yes you can mount to existing 3 screw mount from older disposal...i just went ahead and used the new one though :) So i just replaced with the unit. Hope this helps :)

Yes it does fit. It is possible that the units from several years ago did not. I bought mine last summer and it fit fine.

I will look at that part tonight to verify. Likely remount mine there if it fits. I'm going to say it will.

I can't use the insinkerator or other universal brands in mine. I would say therefore it is a good guess that these are made for bonecrusher and/or sinkmaster models.

Should be able to go to manufacturers web site at www.insinkerator.com and download owners manual which will likely have warranty information as well. .

I replaced a 14-year old Insinkerator 404 and I just used the Insinkerator 3-bolt mount that was already in my sink. Saved the time, hassle and plumbing putty required to install the Waste King sink mount, and works just fine. The Costco site has a 1-page downloadable instruction sheet on their WK units that shows how. This WK 9940 shipped with the replaceable flaps and gasket that made using the Insinkerator mount possible.

Thanks everyone for your replies. Just FYI, I ordered this to replace the KN-COSM-B, and it does fit exactly onto the existing mounting. Even if it didn't, it came with the mounting piece, which is identical to the old one . The only difference in design is that the battery compartment is on the outside now, so you don't have to take it off to insert new batteries.

I don't know if the adapter would work or not. I replaced an Insinkerator with a Legend series Waste King we like very much. An adapter was ordered with the disposal but returned because it was not needed.

While I don't know the Waste King 8000, its does fit the Insinkerator opening. Sorry. You can buy it and if it doesn't fit, just return it.

I already installed it in my cooler, but I have the old motor still (which has almost identical dimensions). What dimensions do you need?

Replace the entire unit; at least, that's what the folks at InSinkErator told me. The unit I had did not feature a replaceable connection at the top which is where it leaked.....
