Here it seals the bulkhead fitting to the tank. When it ages it hardens and flattens, and the connection starts to weep. A new ring is the fix, and the bulkhead fitting and spacer are separate parts if those turn out to be the problem instead.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48625006674132,"sku":"HAY-051-1998","price":20.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_e8d0db7c-40c5-4531-824c-44ebf7b12639.png?v=1788662069","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/bulkhead-o-ring-after-1996","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
