{"product_id":"silicone-lubricant-75oz","title":"Pentair Silicone Lubricant, .75 oz","description":"\u003cp\u003ePentair R172036 is a .75 oz tube of silicone lubricant for the rubber seals on Rainbow automatic chlorine feeders. It is the lubricant Pentair lists against the feeder parts themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere it goes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lid o-ring gets the most benefit. That seal is opened and closed every time the feeder is loaded, and a dry o-ring drags, pinches and eventually leaks. A thin film of silicone lets it seat evenly, holds the seal under pressure, and stops the lid from bonding to the body after a season in the sun. The internal o-rings that get handled during service want the same treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSilicone, not grease\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSilicone is chosen because it is compatible with the rubber compounds used in pool equipment. Petroleum based grease can swell or soften the same seals, so a tube kept for feeder work is worth having on the shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eListed for Rainbow feeder models 300, 302, 300-19, 300-29, 300-29X, 320, 322, HC-3315, HC-3330 and 3340. Use it sparingly: a light coat, not a packed joint.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pentair","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48627686867156,"sku":"RAI-451-4023","price":16.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_f412b34b-fe72-4a63-adf9-51533362171d.jpg?v=1788726593","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/silicone-lubricant-75oz","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
