A compromised seal at this joint allows water to bypass the seal plate, which can lead to air ingestion, loss of prime, and accelerated wear on internal pump components. Replacing this O-ring at service intervals — or any time the seal plate is removed — restores the pressure-tight seal the pump requires to operate correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin: 20px 0; border: 1px solid #ccc;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePentair Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e356780Z\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e3\/8\" x 11\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity Included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003eEach\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore installation, apply a thin, even coat of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/poolaroo.com\/products\/pentairwaterpoolandspainc_r172351\" alt=\"Pentair R172351 Lifeguard Silicone Lubricant\"\u003ePentair R172351 Lifeguard® Silicone Lubricant\u003c\/a\u003e to the O-ring. This helps the ring seat evenly in its groove, reduces the risk of tearing during reassembly, and extends service life.
