Like any o-ring on the suction side, it has to stay pliable to hold a seal, and once it flattens or hardens the joint can draw air. A pump that loses prime or holds a stubborn air pocket in the strainer lid often has a hardened o-ring somewhere in the assembly rather than a real leak.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServicing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince two are required per pump, replace them as a pair rather than one at a time. A silicone based o-ring lubricant on installation helps them seat and slows the drying that eventually causes the leak.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pentair","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48627951632596,"sku":"PAC-101-7256","price":6.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_4b2db274-0ed6-4bbe-8896-7440b1395d3b.jpg?v=1788730775","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/o-ring-adapter-2-226-2-req","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
