Hayward MICRO STARCLEAR TANK O-RING

The Hayward Micro Star-Clear Tank O-Ring is a vital sealing component specifically designed for the Micro Star-Clear series of cartridge filters, such as the C200 and C225 models. This high-density rubber gasket is engineered to provide a consistent, watertight seal between the filter head and the lower filter body, preventing pressurized water from leaking out during the filtration cycle. Manufactured from a durable, chemical-resistant elastomer, it is built to withstand the constant exposure to pool sanitizers like chlorine and bromine, as well as the thermal expansion and contraction caused by fluctuating water temperatures. Over time, these O-rings can become compressed, flattened, or brittle, making regular inspection and lubrication with a silicone-based lubricant essential for maintaining the system's hydraulic integrity. For shipping and inventory purposes, the estimated weight of the Hayward Micro Star-Clear Tank O-Ring is approximately 0.12 pounds in its retail packaging, while the actual weight of the rubber seal itself is roughly 0.04 pounds.
