Bemis 1055SSC 000 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Bemis 1055SSC fit my elongated toilet bowl, and what bolt spacing does it need?
The 1055SSC is an elongated seat built to the standard 5-1/2 inch bolt spread, which is the spacing on essentially every two-bolt residential and commercial bowl. Seat itself measures 18.063 inches long by 14.438 inches wide, with a 1.5 inch seat height. Bemis states it fits most manufacturers' elongated toilets. If your bowl is round front, this is the wrong shape.
2) Does the 1055SSC toilet seat come with a lid?
No. It's an open front less cover seat, so there is no lid at all. That's the configuration commercial and institutional restrooms typically specify. If you need a closed lid for a hotel guest room or apartment unit, you want a closed front seat with cover instead.
3) Can I swap a Bemis 1055SSC straight onto an existing seat's mounting holes?
In most cases yes. Standard two-bolt china is drilled on 5-1/2 inch centers and that's what this seat mounts to, so you're pulling the old seat and dropping this one into the same holes. The one thing to verify first is bowl shape, since an elongated seat will overhang a round front bowl by roughly two inches.
4) What does a self-sustaining check hinge do on a commercial toilet seat?
It holds the seat wherever you leave it in the open position instead of letting it drop back down. On the Bemis 1055SSC that means the seat stays up on its own for cleaning and for urinal use, which cuts wear on the hinge and the bowl in high-traffic restrooms. The hinge body is plastic, with 300-series stainless steel posts and pintles.
5) Is this Bemis seat durable enough for a school, stadium or high-traffic public restroom?
That's what it's built for. The 1055SSC uses commercial-grade heavy-duty plastic with molded-in color, so scuffs and scratches don't show a different color underneath, and it resists wear, chips and stains. The check hinge and stainless posts and pintles handle repeated lifting without corroding. Property managers standardizing a building on one seat get a consistent 18-inch elongated footprint across every stall.
6) Are the mounting bolts on this seat metal or plastic, and will they rust in a wet restroom?
The posts and pintles are 300-series stainless steel, chosen specifically to resist corrosion in a washdown environment. The hinge body itself is plastic. That combination keeps the fastening hardware from seizing or staining the china the way plated steel does over time.
7) What color and part number do I order for the Bemis 1055SSC?
It ships in white, ordered as Bemis part 1055SSC 000. White is the only color offered on this model, which makes it straightforward for an MRO buyer stocking one seat across a whole facility.
8) Where is the Bemis 1055SSC made, and does it meet green purchasing requirements?
It's made in the US and produced with eco-friendly materials and processes, which is the point institutional and government buyers usually need for a sustainable purchasing line item. Domestic origin also matters on public projects with domestic-content requirements.
