Product details

The Pentair 355329Z is the front housing o-ring for Challenger pool pumps, both the high flow and high head models. It is the genuine Pentair part and is also listed as 355329.

Square, not round

This ring has a square cross section. The groove in the Challenger front housing is cut for that profile, so a round ring of similar diameter will not seat or seal the same way. Order the correct part rather than substituting from a generic assortment.

When to replace it

The housing o-ring seals the front housing to the seal plate. As it ages it flattens and hardens, the seam starts to drip, and the pump can pull air on the suction side. It is a standard item in a Challenger rebuild alongside the lid o-ring and shaft seal. A light coat of silicone o-ring lubricant on installation helps it seat and lengthens its life.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

Which pumps does this fit?
Pentair Challenger pool pumps, both the high flow and high head models.
Why is it square instead of round?
The Challenger front housing groove is cut for a square cross section ring. A round o-ring of similar size will not seal the same way, so use the correct 355329Z.
Is 355329 the same part?
Yes. 355329 and 355329Z refer to the same Pentair o-ring.
Should I lubricate it?
Yes. A thin coat of silicone based o-ring lubricant helps it seat evenly and keeps it from pinching when the housing goes back on.
