It is the genuine Hayward part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it seals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ring sits in the joint between the pump housing and the seal plate. Everything upstream of the impeller is under vacuum while the pump runs, so this joint has to seal against air being pulled in, not just against water being pushed out. That is why a small imperfection in the ring produces a big symptom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to change it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAny time the pump comes apart. Once an o-ring has been compressed in service it takes a set, and a reused ring is the most common reason a freshly rebuilt pump still runs with air in the basket. A thin film of o-ring lubricant helps it seat and makes the next service easier.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48626123112660,"sku":"HAY-101-3208","price":27.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_6cb46377-4355-49bc-92c7-4cff6ee30971.jpg?v=1788705159","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/housing-o-ring","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
