📋 How it works▾

Lo-Chlor Hydra-Slip Silicone Grease is a pool-grade silicone lubricant for O-rings, seals, pump lids and filter fittings — protecting rubber components from drying, cracking and chemical damage. The 50g size is the most popular for residential pool owners — provides many years of O-ring maintenance for a standard home pool.

O-rings are the unsung heroes of pool plumbing — small rubber seals that prevent leaks at pump lids, filter heads, multiport valves and fittings. Without lubrication, these seals dry out, crack and begin to leak. Hydra-Slip maintains the flexibility and sealing performance of rubber components, dramatically extending their service life.

Lo-Chlor Hydra-Slip details

  • Silicone-based lubricant specifically for pool equipment O-rings and seals
  • Prevents rubber from drying, cracking and losing sealing performance
  • Safe for use on pump lids, filter O-rings, multiport valves and fittings
  • Does not affect pool water chemistry
  • A small amount goes a very long way — apply sparingly
  • 50gm — The 50g size is the most popular for residential pool owners — provides many years of O-ring maintenance for a standard home pool.

See also the Hydra-Slip 75gm if you need a different quantity. For pool equipment maintenance beyond O-ring care, Lo-Chlor Salt Cell Cleaner Plus handles cell descaling and Lo-Chlor Aquaguard CSM provides triple protection for cells, scale and metals in the water.

🔍 Where to use it▾

Hydra-Slip is used on equipment, not in pool water. Select your equipment type.

⚙Pump lid O-ring▾
✓ Primary use — pump lid seals
Apply a thin coat to the pump lid O-ring each time you open the pump basket. This is the most common O-ring maintenance task for pool owners.
🔵Filter head O-ring▾
✓ Important — filter seal maintenance
Filter head O-rings seal the top of sand filters and cartridge filter housings. Annual lubrication prevents leaks and cracking.
🔄Multiport valve O-rings▾
✓ Recommended — prevents valve leaks
The internals of multiport valves use O-rings that benefit from periodic lubrication. Apply during annual valve service.
🧂Salt chlorinator fittings▾
✓ Important — salt-exposed seals degrade faster
Salt exposure accelerates rubber degradation. Lubricate all chlorinator seals and O-rings more frequently — every 3 months.
🔩Threaded fittings & unions▾
✓ Helpful — eases assembly and prevents seizing
A thin coat on threaded unions and connections makes assembly easier and prevents dissimilar materials from seizing.
⚠Petroleum-based products▾
✗ Do not substitute with petroleum products
⚠ Never use petroleum-based lubricants (Vaseline, WD-40) on rubber pool seals — they swell and degrade rubber. Only use silicone-based lubricants like Hydra-Slip.
💊 How to use▾

A very small amount is sufficient. Apply with a clean fingertip or cotton swab.

O-ring application
Thin coat
one fingertip amount
Remove the O-ring, wipe clean, apply a thin uniform coat of Hydra-Slip, then reseat.
Pump lid
Each service
when opening
Each time you open the pump strainer basket, wipe the O-ring clean and apply a thin coat before replacing the lid.
Annual filter service
Once per year
on all seals
During annual filter service, inspect and lubricate all O-rings and seals. Replace any that are cracked or compressed.
Storage
Seal container
after use
Keep the container sealed when not in use. Silicone grease lasts for many years if stored correctly.
❓ FAQ▾
Can I use Vaseline instead?▾
No — petroleum-based products (including Vaseline and WD-40) swell rubber O-rings, causing them to deform and eventually fail. Only silicone-based lubricants are safe for pool equipment rubber seals.
How often should I lubricate my pump O-ring?▾
Every time you open the pump lid — typically monthly when you clean the basket. This 30-second step costs almost nothing and prevents the most common cause of pump lid leaks.
My O-ring is cracking. Will Hydra-Slip fix it?▾
Hydra-Slip prevents cracking but can't repair an already cracked O-ring. A cracked O-ring needs to be replaced. After replacing, apply Hydra-Slip regularly to extend the life of the new seal.
